friendly little town

Pacy-sur-Eure is an ideal place to take a break. With its terraces, local shops, and lively small-town atmosphere, it's a popular stop for touring cyclists. There's also a steam train here for exploring the Eure Valley in a different way.

Located on the banks of the Eure River, the small village of Croisy-sur-Eure is ideal for a break. The village is divided into two parts. It houses a castle, a church, and old stones with authentic charm. As a side note, this is where the famous Boursin cheese is produced, founded by François Boursin in 1957.

No wonder Pacy-sur-Eure bears the name of the river that crosses it. The river is truly one of the jewels of the town. It creates delightful landscapes that invite you to stroll along its banks.

Initially built in the 11th century, the Saint-Aubin church underwent numerous restorations, notably from the 16th to the 19th century. This is what gave rise to the current building, mostly Gothic. The Vernon stone used to erect it is characteristic of other religious monuments in the region, such as the cathedrals of Chartres and Rouen and the collegiate churches of Vernon and Mantes-la-Jolie.

The Saint Aubin church is located in Pacy-sur-Eure. Placed under the patronage of Saint Aubin, bishop of Angers in the sixth century, it has been listed as a historic monument since December 26, 1927.
