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.

The Bord-Louviers forest is a majestic forest located at the confluence of the Eure and the Seine. This forest, former property of the Dukes of Normandy and the Kings of France, covers an area of 4,568 hectares and offers a variety of landscapes and ecosystems. You can discover the pine forest on the northern terraces overlooking the Seine, the beech forest in the central plain, or even the oaks on the southern plateaus. You will also be able to admire the seven remarkable trees listed, such as the Tabouel beech, a 39 meter high beech, or the Pancarte oak, an oak which has swallowed a sign on its trunk. The forest is also home to a rich fauna: deer, wild boars, foxes and squirrels.

Located on the border of the communes of Heudreville-sur-Eure and Acquigny, “Le Clos Saint-Mauxe”, a small clearing, is a symbolic place of the Christian faith. In the first centuries of our era, Saint-Mauxe, bishop of Italy, persecuted for his faith in God, took refuge in Gaul, accompanied by his brother Vénérand, deacon, and two priests Marc and Etherius. Pursued by the proconsul Sabinus from whom they had escaped in Italy, they were joined by their enemies in this clearing. Sabinus had the heads of Saint Mauxus and Saint Vénérand cut off... as well as eight of his own soldiers who had just been converted by the words and miracles of the holy bishop. This site became a place of fervor and devotion where processions were regularly organized, particularly during difficult times, for example during the plague of 1517 or the droughts of 1556 and 1785. According to historical records, miracles were even cited and an altar with a stone column was erected

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

Located on the banks of the Iton, the castle was built in 1775, in the neoclassical style characteristic of this period. The cut stone facades have retained their monumentality (basement, noble floors and attic), reinforced by the austerity of the few decorative elements (pediment, cornices). The facades and roofs of the four buildings on the farm were listed in the MH in 1977, the castle, the so-called chalet house, the stables and sheds as well as the cellar located in the commune of Acquigny were listed in 1994 in the MH.
