Unfortunately, you cannot enter the castle grounds.

Château des ducs d'Harcourt: Ruins of a castle built in the 17th and 18th centuries in Thury-Harcourt. Unfortunately, the castle, praised as the "Versaille of Normandy", was destroyed in fighting in August 1944. Today only parts of the facade and two guard pavilions remain. The chateau is a good starting point for numerous hikes in the beautiful "Normandie Suisse".

This 17th and 18th century castle did not survive the Second World War. Today only part of the main facade and a chapel remain. If the private domain is closed to the public, the main buildings that remain standing can be seen from the public road.

This small, unassuming chapel is said to have been built by William the Conqueror who, having received the good news of the location of a traitor there, made a vow to build a chapel in the name of the good news. This is how he captured, tortured and killed his traitor. He returned and had the chapel built as promised. From this place, we also have a breathtaking view of the municipalities of Caumont, Esson, Thury-Harcourt and Croisilles.

The Château d'Harcourt was built in the 17th century and only a ruin remains today, due to battles during the Second World War which destroyed an already dilapidated building. The ruins are well enough preserved to be worth a visit if you pass by.
