Chapelle Bonne Nouvelle

Highlight • Religious Site

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.

Château d'Harcourt

Highlight • Castle

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.
