The European Heritage Days are always a rare opportunity to set eyes on sites that are often inaccessible or little-known, places of art, culture and history that shape the identity of the territories. Sometimes private, sometimes hidden, sometimes off the beaten track, these exceptional days are an opportunity to discover a whole part of the history of our little corner of Normandy in Seine-Eure!
A free, festive, country art weekend!
