ディエップからパリまで坂道を登りましたが、それでもイギリスのサイクリングロードよりずっと楽でした。

A must-see

This magnificent 7,000 ha Pays de Bray forest is one of the largest beech forests in France. In all seasons, it offers magnificent panoramas and colors ideal for walks and all nature activities. Whether on foot, by bike or on horseback, you will appreciate the magnificent beech trees, some of which are remarkable, and will probably have the chance to come across a wild animal (deer, deer, fawn, wild boar, etc.). This forest has the particularity of being crossed by the Allée des Limousins, a rectilinear breakthrough of 14 km.

The original construction of the building dates back to the 11th and 12th centuries, partly destroyed by lightning on June 10, 1883. In 1896 it was decided to demolish and completely rebuild the church. In front of the church, you can admire the Dillard Fountain. This dates from 1901. Although he died about fifteen years before its construction, Mr. Dillard was keen to supply the city with drinking water and it was with this objective that he made a legacy in his will, a legacy which was contested by the family and whose lawsuit against the town of Saint-Saëns failed. The Dillard Fountain remained operational until 1960 when the city was connected to drinking water.

Away from cars, but a bit monotonous...

Magnificent castle dating from the Renaissance whose plans were inspired by the castle of Chaumont s/Loire. Sequestered during the Revolution, the estate was transformed into a prison during the time of the Terror and housed up to 150 prisoners. It was returned to its owner in 1799. The site is now owned by the St Joseph Institute and the outbuildings house a private establishment for general and technical education, with in particular courses dedicated to horticulture and the hotel and catering industry. The castle offers accommodation services and room rentals for events. It is open to individual visits during the July-August period from 2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., except on reception days for weddings or other events. The gardens surrounding the castle were designed by Le Nôtre. A sign on the Avenue Verte also specifies that the village of Mesnières, entirely organized around the castle, deserves a little detour. It's true ...

Mesnières-en-Braye, very beautiful castle.

I couldn't visit it but stopped in front of it. A castle to visit I think.
