Superb castle in the Perche!

superb car-free road

Church built in the 12th and 16th centuries. Listed apse from the 12th century. 4-storey bell tower. Corner buttress bell with staircase turret. Renaissance portal. Large Gothic window above the portal. 16th century roof and nave. Stone statue of a bishop, 16th century paintings.

Between the green hills of Perche, the Saint-Denis church contains a 16th century baptistery listed as a Historic Monument. Explanatory plaque at the entrance. This church is Romanesque in style and has a rounded apse and a quadrangular bell tower. The baptismal font dates from the 16th century. The church is surrounded by walls made of Saint-Denis stone.

Formerly La Loupe, Vaupillon and Saint Eliph formed only one parish called the Trinity of the Woods. The church contains a set of 3 painted stone altarpieces from the 17th century. One is dated 1646 and signed Delahays: it includes 3 sculptures: a trunk of grace, representation of the trinity in which God the father holds before him his son on the cross, the dove of the Holy Spirit hovering above his head You can also see a statue of the local saint in painted and gilded stucco and a Saint Sebastian in painted stucco, characteristic of the counter-reformation. A small chapel to the north was added in the 19th century which contains a pieta.

Of course there is the castle but the rest of the village is really worth a stop (church, wash house, half-timbered house, etc.)

Very beautiful start to the route with an arrival at this magnificent mill

A modest place of worship, built in the middle of a tiny village, the Favril church was there as early as 1250. Under the reign of Saint Louis, Saint-Pierre du Favril was already there. This is confirmed by a register of the diocese of Chartres, drawn up in 1250, which mentions a parish church dedicated to Saint-Pierre au Favril (Faverilium). The text adds that there was a priest and 56 parishioners.
