Magnificent, well-maintained, inhabited residence.

Listed as a Historic Monument, the Notre-Dame church is a very interesting building that expresses some very characteristic features of the architecture of the Norman School, particularly in the Gothic choir attributed to the 13th century. The bell tower-porch has a late 15th century portal with an ogival arcade that frames an openwork tympanum. Above the portal is built a flamboyant style rose window. The nave, flanked by two side aisles, was built in the 13th century, but was extensively remodeled in the 16th and 17th centuries. It has an interior elevation on 3 levels. All that remains of the primitive Romanesque church is the base of the old lantern tower. Visible only from the outside, it is located at the crossing of the transept. The church has some singularities: -The sepulchre dating from the 15th century, representing Christ stretched out on a shroud, Nicodemus, Joseph of Arimathea, Saint John the Evangelist, the Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene. -The stained glass windows are attributed for the most part to Édouard Didron, a great Parisian master glassmaker.

Located in the city center, this building dates back to the 15th century. A former medieval fortress, it was largely rebuilt during the Renaissance. The castle is famous for having hosted Francis I and Louis XIV for a night on July 15, 1680, in the north tower.

Beautiful track for Gravel alternating single paths in the woods and tracks

The entire route is signposted as a hiking trail. Only accessible with mountain bikes.

The town of Neufchâtel is one of the martyr towns that suffered significant destruction during the 2nd World War. However, the city center which is a little away from the Avenue Verte deserves a little detour. Around the church, whose foundations date back to the 12th century, there are still a few old houses, the oldest of which, dating from the 16th century, now houses a museum.

After 80kms we need somewhere to grab a bite to eat. The pain au chocolate in this boulangerie were incredible! Well worth the time to stop and enjoy.
