At this point, the hiking trail takes us seven or eight thousand years back into the history of the European continent and its settlement. Using only the power of their hands - and tools that seem primitive (from our perspective today) - the people of that era built astonishing structures. Such as this ring wall - partly made of bricks, partly made of stone - that protected the "Camp Celtique de Bierre".

Ancient fortifications which protected the town of Falaise, mainly known as the birthplace of William the Conqueror. Very beautiful and impressive building!

Castle at Falaise, which is best known for being the birthplace of William the Conqueror

The Church of Saint-Germain is an impressive church that was built from the 14th to the 17th century and features a mix of Gothic, Renaissance and classical architecture. You can admire the majestic north porch, the lantern tower, the large bell tower and the 15 chapels inside. The church also houses the remains of Blessed Marguerite de Lorraine-Vaudémont, a benefactress of Argentan. The church is open to the public all year round and hosts many concerts, including organ concerts during the International Organ Festival in summer.

The Porte des Cordeliers is a medieval gate and one of the remains of the fortified enclosure which surrounded the town of Falaise, birthplace of William the Conqueror. The gate was built in the 13th century and was guarded by Franciscan monks, also known as Cordeliers. You can admire the architecture of the gate and its neighboring tower, as well as the view of the countryside and the Château de Falaise.

At this point, the hiking trail leads back seven or eight millennia into the history of the European continent and its settlement. The people of that era were able to build amazing buildings using only the work of their hands - and with (from today's perspective) seemingly primitive tools. So this ring wall - partly brick, partly made of stones - that protectively surrounded the "Camp Celtique de Bierre".

The house was built around 1750. At that time, a beautiful English park with gardens was created. It no longer exists today, but the green space that one crosses to access the house is still a peaceful part of nature to enjoy.

This fortified site was built in the Middle Neolithic (5300-4400 BC), when agricultural practices were beginning to take hold. The camp is one of the largest in western France.
