Meet the potters of Ger The "Museum of Norman Pottery" becomes the "Museum of Ceramics - Centre of Creation": a change of name for ever more actions in favor of the knowledge and the valorization of pottery heritage and ceramic creation! From the fifteenth to the beginning of the twentieth century, Ger’s potters manufactured, in industrial quantities, sandstone pots intended mainly for the preservation and transport of food. Discover their daily life and their know-how that inspire today’s ceramists! The museum, completely refurbished in recent years, presents the use of pots and the daily life of the past through a selection of objects, ambiences, fun modules, but also audiovisual shows. As you walk through the workshop, the dryer shed and the large tunnel-kilns, you will know everything about the process of making pots, from the extraction of clay to their delicate firing. In the master potter’s house, you will understand the economic and social organization of this incredible pottery community. A creative centre, the site exhibits contemporary pieces produced by renowned creators. The museum also hosts a young ceramist in its workshop nursery for 23 months. Come to meet him, discover his universe and his production (access: by the road to Sourdeval or by visiting the museum). The annual potters' fair, courses and workshops, as well as the pieces sold in shops, are other actions in favor of today’s promotion and creation.

Tragic scene of the battle in August 1944 where numerous soldiers lost their lives for our liberty, it has become a place of remembrance with its memorial monument and one of the three French representations of General Eisenhower's coat of arms.

It was built in 1082 by Count Robert de Mortain, half brother of William the Conqueror. Only the Romanesque doorway remains from this period. This outstanding example of Anglo-Norman Gothic architecture was rebuilt in the 13th century. It shelters a treasure unique in the world, the Chrismal, a eucharistic receptacle dating back to the 8th century and a 10th century evangeliary.

Rising to 221 metres, the rock appears suspended. It overlooks the green Saint Georges de Rouelley valley, in the Manche département and the Rouellé woods, in the Orne. Created by millions of years of geological upheaval and erosion by the elements, the Fosse Arthour is today a water gap, a narrow, 70-metre deep gorge, cut through a rocky ridge and littered with huge blocks that have collapsed from the sides. Made of Armorican sandstone, one of the hardest rocks from the primary era, these ridges have withstood the erosion better than the surrounding schists that form the bocage landscape. This explains the striking contrast between this steep, rugged terrain, and the gentle relief off the surrounding hills. The views from the top of the water gap are stunning. Footpaths open all year round: trails for pedestrians (GR22), horses and mountain bikes, climbing routes. Access: St Georges de Rouelley car park, location "la fosse Arthour" Guided tours: Contact the Normandie-Maine Regional Natural Park or the Mortain Tourist Office.
