カロージュ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

Very beautiful castle. The outside area is very interesting and a nice walk. Unfortunately I didn't see the inside of the castle. The bicycle parking area is behind the archway on the inside on the right.

The Château du Petit-Jard is a former hunting lodge dating from the 18th century. It is surrounded by a beautiful area with a pond, an orangery, a kennel and a vegetable garden. You can admire the brick and stone architecture of the castle, as well as the neo-Gothic details of the outbuildings. The castle is not open to the public, but you can enjoy the view from outside and explore the nearby La Motte forest.

The castle is one of the largest in Normandy. It has been a listed building since 1927. From the free car park, a gravel path leads first to a gatehouse, then to the square castle, which is as defensive as it is representative and stands next to the small castle garden and a pasture. Beyond the castle stretches the beech and oak forest of the Forêt d’Ecouves, which is part of the Normandy-Maine Regional Nature Park. Inside, the Château de Carrouges invites you to travel through three centuries. The dining room with its marble fireplace and the bishops’ room with its wood-paneled prayer chamber are particularly beautiful.

A very beautiful castle in a historic city.

The Notre-Dame chapel in Lignières-Orgères with its park-like garden is ideal for a break. Approaching from the east or south, you can see the first granite houses in this town and notice that you are slowly approaching Normandy or Brittany.

Alencon is an excellent place to drive on the former railway line. You can also continue along the path towards la Mele-sur-Sarthe. The track is absolutely flat, with firm gravel and plenty of shade. Ideal when the sun burns down from above in summer.

The chapel of Notre-Dame de Lourdes, known as the Calvary, was built in 1860 in white stone. Nevertheless, the building would currently need a restoration to find all its splendor.
