ハーフルールのおすすめライド

A charming village with a beautiful view of the Seine to discover...

A beautifully paved route along the old railway line. The path is largely separate from busy roads, making it a peaceful ride along the busy section of this loop of the Seine.

The viewpoint is located on a curve, so be very careful when stopping!

Ride in the morning if possible

The church of Saint Anne was given to the priory of the Madeleine of Rouen by Richard the Lionheart. This old Romanesque church from the 11th century suffered damage during the revolution. It was burned and rebuilt at the beginning of the 19th century, but without its bell tower which would be erected later. The bell was suspended from scaffolding in the cemetery, which earned Bénouville the nickname of a village without a bell tower. The church retains some vestiges of its original construction and a baptismal font from the 12th century.

Latin cross plan with one vessel. A nave intersected by a transept. Ogival windows and buttresses punctuate the cut stone walls topped with a double-sloped slate roof. At the crossing of the transept emerges a bell tower crowned with a polygonal slate spire.
