Current natural border between Île-de-France and Normandy, Epte is also a historical border. Indeed, in the Middle Ages, it was the boundary between the Kingdom of France and the Duchy of Normandy. This is why it had a large number of fortifications. Here, precisely in Saint-Clair-sur-Epte, the treaty was signed in 911 between Charles III the Simple and Rollo, Viking leader, aimed at establishing the Normans in Neustria in order to protect the kingdom of Charles III from their incursions by sea This treaty gave birth to the Duchy of Normandy.

The Potager-Verger du Château de la Roche Guyon is a French-style vegetable and fruit garden that is open to the public and allows you to stroll through this wonderful place. The garden faces the Château de la Roche-Guyon, a medieval castle built on a limestone cliff overlooking the Seine. The garden was created in the 17th century by Madeleine Le Tellier de Louvois, wife of François VIII de La Rochefoucauld, first Duke of La Roche-Guyon. The garden has 675 fruit trees, including pear, apple, peach and plum trees, as well as vegetables and aromatic plants. The garden was restored in 2004, after being abandoned for nearly a century. It has received the Remarkable Garden label from the Ministry of Culture.
