Le Vaudreuil

Tourism, holidays & weekends guide in the Eure

Important town of Eure, in the Normandy region, Le Vaudreuil takes place about thirty kilometers from Evreux, in one of the loops of the Seine. It is located on the banks of the Eure, not far from Porte-de-Seine, Val-de-Reuil and Saint-Etienne-du-Vauvray.

Ancient, the commune of Vaudreuil stood out from the 11th century, in particular thanks to its archers who accompanied William of Normandy in his conquest of England in 1066. Having become royal land, in the 17th century it saw the building of a castle with gardens of Le Nôtre destroyed in the 19th century.

From this glorious past, Le Vaudreuil has preserved an architectural and historical heritage of great interest, which continues to attract visitors passing through the Normandy region.

Things to see and do

Listed as an historic monument, the Notre-Dame church was built at the beginning of the 11th century, still revealing today a Romanesque apse with a cul-de-four vault. It is also possible to admire a nave and a western facade from the 16th century, a high altar in gilded wood from the 17th century or even very beautiful statues of the Trinity and Saint Mary Magdalene.

Not far away, you can admire the 16th century Saint-Cyr church. Although desecrated, the latter however sees its bells ringing every day for the angelus.

While strolling through the Norman town, you can also discover the remains of the Vaudreuil fortified castle, the Maigremont castle or the Estates castle.

To make the most of sunny days and nature, head for the greenway and the Aulnes park or the paths and the Pâtures.

Le Vaudreuil also has a very pleasant golf course on Île l'Homme, with one of the best 18-hole courses in France. It is possible to enjoy a restaurant in a former 17th century tithe barn.
