A beautiful castle

On relatively flat ground, the rock rises among the beech trees, like an ancient fortress with vertical walls. It is a formidable natural oppidum bristling with rampart rocks, overhanging patrol paths, watchtower peaks and a summit platform. Small secret passages open up, between the blocks and the vegetation, to climb to the sunny summit from where a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside can be seen.

Located in the town of Bricquebec, this superb castle was built between the 10th and 11th centuries. The exterior of the remains of the castle are freely accessible and are worth the detour!

The Château de Saint-Sauveur-le-Vicomte is a castle dating from the 11th century. Sacked twice during the Hundred Years War, it is now in ruins. Although not as impressive as some castles that are still intact, this castle is open to the public and very accessible. It is a wonderful place to visit.

Located in the center of Cotentin, Saint-Sauveur-Le-Vicomte has vast expanses of marshes, a pretty forest massif and several hilly sites, culminating at Mont de Taillepied.

The ruins of the medieval castle of Bricquebec are still very well preserved with in particular a magnificent polygonal keep with eleven sides unique in Europe.

Places steeped in history, which has remained intact

The chapel was built in the 16th century and is dedicated to St Jouvin who died in 370. He was renowned for curing skin diseases and in particular eczema as well as the source which is located not far from the chapel. A pilgrimage takes place here every year on Whit Monday. More sportily the descent of the wood on mountain bikes requires a little caution.
