The Porte des Cordeliers is a medieval gate and one of the remains of the fortified enclosure which surrounded the town of Falaise, birthplace of William the Conqueror. The gate was built in the 13th century and was guarded by Franciscan monks, also known as Cordeliers. You can admire the architecture of the gate and its neighboring tower, as well as the view of the countryside and the Château de Falaise.

The house was built around 1750. At that time, a beautiful English park with gardens was created. It no longer exists today, but the green space that one crosses to access the house is still a peaceful part of nature to enjoy.

It is here, on this site, that it is said that a young Duke Robert returning from hunting saw a young peasant girl named Arlette and immediately fell in love with her. He asked her to return to the castle with him and that night, Guillaume, nicknamed "the bastard", was conceived.

If you can visit this church on a sunny day, preferably at sunset or sunrise, it shows itself at its best.

This building is a tithe barn. This is an old monastic barn which was used by the monastery to store its grain. The name barn is related to the Latin "granarium" which means attic. Unfortunately, the building suffered a fire in 2013 and lost its roof.
