The chapel of the blessed is located on the heights of Saint-Saëns. Believers or not come there for their children. The building would have the power to make babies walk! At the foot of the statue of Saint-Saëns, we sometimes find baby shoes, proof of the passage of parents worried about their children.

The original construction of the building dates back to the 11th and 12th centuries, partly destroyed by lightning on June 10, 1883. In 1896 it was decided to demolish and completely rebuild the church. In front of the church, you can admire the Dillard Fountain. This dates from 1901. Although he died about fifteen years before its construction, Mr. Dillard was keen to supply the city with drinking water and it was with this objective that he made a legacy in his will, a legacy which was contested by the family and whose lawsuit against the town of Saint-Saëns failed. The Dillard Fountain remained operational until 1960 when the city was connected to drinking water.

The Saint-Sulpice church in Ry underwent several developments from the 12th to the 19th century. These successive embellishments testify to the importance of the village, which had no less than 600 inhabitants in the 13th century. The most remarkable arrangement is undoubtedly the 16th century carved oak porch, listed MH and inspired by the Italian Renaissance. It forms an ensemble richly decorated with biblical figures, plant elements and imaginary or warlike animal representations. An overturned boat hull vault, characteristic of Norman architecture, covers it. Remarkably well preserved, this porch is one of the most finely and richly decorated in the region, if not in France. Beyond its primary function of shelter, this porch is a true work of art, the ornaments of which bear witness to the social, military and religious history of the Renaissance.

This place is history live: the rocket launch site of the Nazis' Retaliation Weapon 1 (V1) from WW2 was used to bombard London - which luckily never took place at least from this base. The launcher with a rocket (actually, it is a cruise missile), the supply building, ammunition and officers' bunkers can still be seen very clearly today and can be viewed up close.
