A special place, assembling a collection of objects associated with the famous French composer in the house where he was born: Claude Debussy's birthplace is located in the historic quarter of Saint-Germain-en-Laye. It was in this 17-century house in the town that Claude Debussy was born, on 22 August 1862, and spent his early childhood. His father ran a china shop on the ground floor. After the composer's death in 1918, it soon became the main gathering place of his many admirers. Once inside, you will discover a wonderful little inner courtyard, where a splendid wooden staircase will lead you up to the museum. The museum, officially recognised as a 'Maison des illustres' ('Houses of the Famous'), displays objects and photographs that help provide a better understanding of the composer's creative process. In fact, Debussy liked to surround himself with objects from different places and artistic movements, which influenced his music. For example, a Japanese lacquered panel, which came from his Parisian mansion, depicting two fish swimming under a willow, musically metamorphosed into 'Poissons d'or', a piano piece (1907). A small museum but a grand tribute to one of France's greatest composers!

One hundred years after his death, Renoir is back in Chatou hologram! Familiarly, he tells us about his vision of painting, the harsh criticisms of his contemporaries, his workshop secrets, his loves, his relatives ... and the fertile inspiration drawn from the banks of the Seine. At the time of the first scandals, Durand-Ruel and some amateurs give him a decisive support by buying him paintings. Alphonse Fournaise is one of the first! He ordered his portrait and that of his daughter for 200 francs. For more than ten years, Renoir made frequent stays at home and around Chatou where he painted about thirty paintings. Aged nearly forty, he began the ambitious Breakfast of the Boaters. This painting, painted on the balcony of the Maison Fournaise, is the result of long research. The painter feels then that he has arrived "at the end of impressionism". This great admirer of the masters of the Italian Renaissance dreams of making this work a bridge between Veronese, Raphael and the modern life of his century.

In the Pays de Bray and the Eaulne valley, north of Neufchâtel-en-Bray, the village of Vatierville boasts an outlying church which, thanks to its rich heritage, has just been awarded the "Patrimoine Rural de la Seine-Maritime" label in 2022. Although not listed as a Monument Historique, the church dedicated to Saint-Pierre has regained all its charm following renovation work from 2019 to 2020, which brought to light wall frescoes. Like many religious buildings in Seine-Maritime, the church dates back to the 11th and 12th centuries. It is in the Anglo-Norman Romanesque style. Like many buildings of the period, it was attached to a monastery or abbey. The abbey of Saint-Victor-en-Caux gave the church its patronage in 1179. The church has an elongated plan, typical of rural churches, with a choir and narrower chevet, vaulted as an extension of the nave. The Romanesque bell tower, located between the choir and the nave, is the building?s most emblematic feature. Supported by thick walls, the steeple has three levels, with large geminated bays at the top. The nave has been altered several times, and the flat ceiling replaces an old wooden vault. To the south, a chapel dedicated to Saint-Roch with a large Gothic bay was added in the 13th and 14th centuries. Numerous painted elements were uncovered during restoration work. Flower decorations have now been restored in the chapel and on the ribs of the bell tower vault. On the walls of the nave, a funerary liter runs all the way to the north chapel, bearing the coat of arms of the Turgot family, who in the 18th century acquired a large amount of land in the Eaulne Valley. Another decorative feature, glazed paving stones, have been found and reintegrated into the chapel paving. But the church?s treasures don?t stop there, as the furnishings are listed as Monuments Historiques for their quality. In the choir, three stone bas-reliefs show traces of polychrome. The high altar houses a 17th-century work depicting a Resurrection, and two side altars in the nave also contain painted panels. The ensemble, which backs onto the bell tower, is topped by a Glory Beam with a crucifix. For all its heritage qualities, the church at Vatierville is definitely worth a visit to admire the religious history of the Normandy countryside.

Located in Saint-Léger-aux-Bois, the Mailly Tower is a tower with thick walls made of sandstone, brick and flint, with machicolations and a pepperpot roof. It is partly covered by an ivy which gives it the air of being out of time. We notice a pretty little house that has been built on top of it. A historical plaque in English and French is fixed on the brick of the tower. It indicates that a castle was built there in the 16th century by the families of Bailleul and Mailly, lords of Saint-Leger-aux-Bois. The last lord who lived there died in 1794, guillotined during the Revolution and his castle destroyed and burned down. It has three levels with a remarkable stone spiral staircase. The slate roof rests on an imposing traditional oak frame. Marie Stuart, Queen of Scotland, even spent a night there as a prisoner!

It deserves such a protection for various reasons: for the quality of its construction and the perfect state of conservation of the building, but even more for the presence of exceptional fixtures and equipment that makes it an exceptional example of the last technological revolution of the French milling industry.
