Bonjour Dyrce !

"Nous t'avons rendu visite il y a une semaine."

Literally : "We you gave a visit a week ago."

t' = you as an indirect object   -> We gave the visit to you.

rendre visite à  [quelqu'un] = to visit [someone] 
See the related lesson : https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/revision/grammar/visiter-versus-rendre-visite-a-visiting-places-versus-visiting-people

il y a + [duration] which is the subject of this lesson.

I hope that's helpful!
Bonne journée !
