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

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.

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.
