Description
This rocky spur marks the border between the Bassin Parisien, located further east, and the Armorican Massif. From here, the landforms cut by the rivers create the characteristic landscapes of the “Suisse Normande”. The castle, dating from the 19th century, was built on the ancient remains of a fortified 12th century castle. It is still possible to see the towers which overlook the Orne valley. A 1.5 km route, equipped with numbered markers, will allow you to discover the natural and historical riches of the site.
