A must-see

A seemingly simple church with a very original structure composed of a concrete shell reinforced with nested ceramic cylinders (forming the catenary profile of the vault).

Lovely passage under the viaduct with a beautiful pond and animals Possibility of crossing it on gravel by following the green path

North-facing church with a Latin cross plan, composed of a nave accompanied by side aisles divided into nine bays and ending with a polygonal chevet with three cut sides. The entrance to the building is through a bell tower-porch.

Church with an elongated plan. A nave preceded by a bell tower with a polygonal spire surmounting the gable of the main façade, finished with a flat chevet and topped with a long-span slate roof. The elevations are in brick, rendering and stone, with each bay materialized by a semicircular bay and buttresses.

Listed as a Historic Monument, the Notre-Dame church is a very interesting building that expresses some very characteristic features of the architecture of the Norman School, particularly in the Gothic choir attributed to the 13th century. The bell tower-porch has a late 15th century portal with an ogival arcade that frames an openwork tympanum. Above the portal is built a flamboyant style rose window. The nave, flanked by two side aisles, was built in the 13th century, but was extensively remodeled in the 16th and 17th centuries. It has an interior elevation on 3 levels. All that remains of the primitive Romanesque church is the base of the old lantern tower. Visible only from the outside, it is located at the crossing of the transept. The church has some singularities: -The sepulchre dating from the 15th century, representing Christ stretched out on a shroud, Nicodemus, Joseph of Arimathea, Saint John the Evangelist, the Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene. -The stained glass windows are attributed for the most part to Édouard Didron, a great Parisian master glassmaker.

At a recent city council meeting, the city decided to rename this park Michel Lejeune after the former mayor of Forges who died two years ago. Michel Lejeune particularly liked this place, which was long called Mondory, after a 17th century theater actor.

The park of the Hôtel de Ville, also called Parc Mondory, houses two pavilions: the Oratory of Anne of Austria and the Guardhouse. The original building, made of ferruginous sandstone, brick and half-timbering, dates from the 17th century. It was located on the site of the current Hôtel de Ville. Owned by Le Vaillant, a master glassmaker, it was one of the most beautiful houses in the town. Thanks to its size and location, it was chosen to accommodate the King of France Louis XIII and Queen Anne of Austria during their cure in 1633. During this royal stay, the local nobility and the Deputation of the Parliament of Rouen presented themselves to the King. Leisure activities occupied an important place: hunting, theater, etc. The famous Mondory and his troupe were brought from Paris. He presented three plays: Mélite, Clitandre and la Veuve by Pierre Corneille. The latter took advantage of this to draw the attention of the Cardinal and thus obtain his protection. In memory of this episode, the park of the Hôtel de Ville bears the name Parc Mondory.
