a great cycle path through the railway tunnel - the tunnel is beautifully lit.

A rest area at the train station. There's more than just tables and benches here, plus a nice place to linger.

Unfortunately, you cannot enter the castle grounds.

Château des ducs d'Harcourt: Ruins of a castle built in the 17th and 18th centuries in Thury-Harcourt. Unfortunately, the castle, praised as the "Versaille of Normandy", was destroyed in fighting in August 1944. Today only parts of the facade and two guard pavilions remain. The chateau is a good starting point for numerous hikes in the beautiful "Normandie Suisse".

This 17th and 18th century castle did not survive the Second World War. Today only part of the main facade and a chapel remain. If the private domain is closed to the public, the main buildings that remain standing can be seen from the public road.

Saint-Étienne Abbey in Le Plessis-Grimoult is a 12th century abbey of the order of Saint-Augustin. You can admire the Gothic portal, the chapter house and the remains of the fortified garden, unique in France. You can also discover the history of the abbey, founded by Richard of Dover, bishop of Bayeux, and which included famous priors such as Gabriel Le Veneur and Bossuet. The abbey is open to visitors from April to October.
