A surprising place... immense and imposing. The monks lived on the other side of the vast church. That part is gone, but the place still inspires silence.

The church of Mont-Rôty, from the 17th and 18th centuries, is dedicated to Saint Madeleine, symbol of the repentant sinner. Its porch is made of brick and its nave is made of brick and flint. The bell tower has 3 bells and has a pointed spire like many in the Pays de Bray. Its apse and transept are made of brick and slate. Inside, it is the woodwork that catches the eye (Romanesque vault, benches, stalls, altarpiece, etc.).

Here, three departments touch each other: Eure, Oise and Seine Maritime. This is the entrance to Normandy; or the entrance to Picardy, depending on your point of view.

Nicholas was bishop of Myra (Asia Minor) in the first half of the 4th century. In the 6th century, a church in his name housed his tomb. But, in 1087, sailors from Bari seized his relics and took them to their city, which became the center of his cult. At the same time, the knight Aubert, from Port, near Nancy, brought back a relic of the saint from a trip to Bari. In this locality, which later took the name of Saint-Nicolas-de-Port, several churches were built successively until the beautiful current basilica where many pilgrims would come, following the example of Jeanne-la-Lorraine. When American Protestants, jealous of Catholic festivities, wanted to copy the Christmas celebrations where Saint Nicholas distributed gifts to children, they created the fictional character of Saint Claude ("Santa Claus").

An exceptional place to rent, surrounded by a park with a river and outbuildings. Located on the A15 axis near Gisors. The castle is backed by a hill and below is not visible from the outside. It is surrounded by woods and a poplar grove.
