Château de Miromesnil

Highlight • Castle

Miromesnil Castle (French: Château de Miromesnil) is located in the commune of Tourville-sur-Arques in the Seine-Maritime department, in Normandy in northern France. The castle's name comes from the French nobleman Armand Thomas Hue, vicomte de Miromesnil, a minister of the Ancien Régime under Louis XVI.

The castle is famous as the birthplace of Guy de Maupassant. The writer was born on August 5, 1850, on the first floor of the building. His parents rented the castle at the time.

The castle complex includes a large garden and an extensive park, which have been designated a "Jardin Remarquable" by the French Ministry of Culture. Since February 6, 1945, the castle building has been listed as a historical monument in France. The castle chapel, which is part of the complex, has been classified as an independent historical monument since July 1957.

Saint James Church ⛪

Highlight • Religious Site

In the center of the square is the statue of Lieutenant General Abraham Duquesne (1610-1688), who commanded his first ship at the age of 17. He defeated Michiel De Ruyter in 1676 and hunted pirates in the Mediterranean. Note the early 18th-century buildings at nos. 18 to 24. A plaque commemorating the chemist Descroizilles hangs at the pharmacy, to whom we owe the coffee filter (a find wrongly attributed to Abbot Belloy

Place du Puits Salé

Highlight • Settlement

This square at the intersection of six streets is the busiest in Dieppe. The name refers to an old well with brackish water, which was replaced by a fountain in the 16th century, the end point of one of the oldest water supply systems in the country. The current fountain is purely for decoration. Striking is the large white pediment of the Café des Tribunaux, the former Cabaret de l'Horloge (with a watch, a clock from 1709). This building from the early 18th century was renovated at the beginning of the 20th century. The former Admiralty building (also early 18th century) now houses a pastry shop.
