St Julien church (in the background) was built in the Byzantine style and has a number of amazing mosaics, you can also visit the top of the tower by arrangement with the tourist office.

Located to the west of the Orne, the medieval town of Domfront, perched on its promontory, is one of the “Most Beautiful Detours in France” and the “Small Towns of Character”.

It's worth it. A steep climb that will take your breath away. Get your guns on.

East of l’église St Julien you will find a history of Domfront and the chateau.

If you are looking for a place that combines nature, history and legend, you can visit the mound of Sainte Anne and the legend of the Dragon, a site perched near Domfront-en-Poiraie in Normandy. According to legend, around the year 1052, a fierce dragon lived in a pit called The Dragon Pit and terrorized the region. The lord of Domfront, William II Talvas, had to sacrifice a young victim every day to appease the beast. One day, his daughter Mabile was chosen by fate and was about to be devoured by the dragon. But a mysterious old man appeared on a rock overlooking the pit and made the sign of the cross, ordering the monster to disappear forever. The dragon flew away and fell into another pit called La Fosse-Tertière, where it died. You can discover this fascinating history by following a loop trail that connects Tertre Sainte-Anne and Tertre Chapon, where you will find information panels. You can also enjoy panoramic views of the countryside and the medieval town of Domfront from the top of the hill.

Road sign by the cemetery.

Very nice simple campsite

Founded in the 11th century, the Benedictine abbey of Notre-Dame de Lonlay had a great influence in the region. Eight priories were attached to it, from Le Mans to Alençon via Domfront. At the architectural level, it presents a particularly interesting mixture of styles with its Romanesque transept and its Gothic heart.
