Magnificent view of the Château d'Acquigny (whose garden can be visited) and the Eure valley

Be careful in winter you can be slippery because of dead leaves but great place

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

Church of Acquigny

Former disused railway line converted into a Voie Verte.

In the wood of Saint-Michel, the greenway from Évreux to the Bec valley joins the GR 26 to offer a lovely asphalted section in the middle of the trees.

This castle is ideally placed at the confluence of the Eure and the Iton rivers. This stream was diverted from its bed to feed the moats of this beautiful building. It can be admired from the park gate.

The Château d'Acquigny was built at the request of Anne de Laval (cousin of the King of France Henri II and Dame-in-waiting to Queen Catherine de Medici), from 1557 with the criterion of inspiring the love that wore to her late husband, Louis de Silly. An original residence was then built: a plan combining the four initials of the couple (ALLS), for a facade of honor with decorative elements of great refinement, releasing all the love that the countess had for her husband. We then understand better why the park surrounding this elegant castle is also nicknamed “a love of garden”.
