The Mesnil Jourdain church, built between the 15th and 16th centuries, is part of a remarkable ensemble with the neighboring Hellenvilliers manor. The church has a defensive bell tower which rests on a pillar in the middle of the nave, a rare architectural feature in the region. You can admire the recently restored stone gargoyles and balustrade, as well as the stained glass windows and paintings inside the church.

This work located in the town of Acquigny allowed the old Dreux-Rouen railway to cross the Eure.

Church of Acquigny

This point of view offers an exceptional panorama of the Abbey of Notre-Dame du Bec, a Benedictine monastery founded in 1034 by Herluin, a knight of the Count of Brionne. The abbey is famous for having been one of the main intellectual centers of the 11th century and for having given three archbishops to Canterbury1. From the top of the hill, you can admire the majestic Saint-Nicolas tower, the 17th century cloister and the 18th century convent buildings.

One of the particularities of this very beautiful Gothic church in the Flamboyant style is that it has a series of eleven windows made between 1490 and 1530. The city was spared the looting of the wars of religion because it housed the Parliament of Normandy during the sack of Rouen by the Protestants in 1562. These beautiful stained glass windows were consequently free of any damage.
