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

A place of Norman magic.

too cute

This is a passage that lives up to its name. It's a good little climb that goes up at 7/8% from the banks of the Ion into the surrounding woods. In fact, it's a cowshed that turns out to be quite nice, once you get to the top...

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.

Church of Acquigny

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.

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.
