excellent greenway, well maintained.

Built on a feudal mound, these ruins are those of the castle founded in 1097. It was one of the ducal castles controlling the Epte River, which then marked the border between Normandy and the Kingdom of France. Given its location, which makes it visible for miles around and offers a panoramic view of the surrounding area, the strategic importance of this position is easily understood. It is currently undergoing major restoration work supported by the Heritage Foundation with the aim of one day making the site accessible to the general public. The road runs around the ramparts.

Current natural border between Île-de-France and Normandy, Epte is also a historical border. Indeed, in the Middle Ages, it was the boundary between the Kingdom of France and the Duchy of Normandy. This is why it had a large number of fortifications. Here, precisely in Saint-Clair-sur-Epte, the treaty was signed in 911 between Charles III the Simple and Rollo, Viking leader, aimed at establishing the Normans in Neustria in order to protect the kingdom of Charles III from their incursions by sea This treaty gave birth to the Duchy of Normandy.
