Saint-Sever State Forest

Highlight • Forest

It covers 1552 hectares. The forest massif occupies a series of hills separated by small, gently sloping plateaus. The maximum altitude recorded is 340 meters at the Butte du Mesnil. Very popular because of the variety of landscapes, this forest is embellished with several bodies of water. The soils are acidic and sometimes waterlogged and form peat bogs called swales.

Abbey Church of Saint-Sever

Highlight • Religious Site

(Open on request at the town hall) Classified as a historical monument in 1881, the abbey church of Saint-Sever is one of the most beautiful jewels of religious architecture in the Bocage Normand. The isolation of the bell tower astonishes the visitor. The Gothic-style abbey church was built in the 13th century. On the route do not miss the gardens of the abbey.
