Domfront — Medieval Town

Highlight • Historical Site

The village of Domfront, which today hosts 3500 inhabitants, was a medieval city rich in history.

Half-timbered houses, superb mansions and the fortified wall surround the 12th century keep.

Even today, the city organizes every other year the "Medieval", various activities which remind tourists of the history of the region.

Domfront Castle Plateau

Highlight • Other

On the castle plateau you can enjoy a wide view in almost all directions. Early in the morning there are no tourists yet, but it already smells like fine croissants. Ideal possibility for a first or second breakfast.

Domfront Castle

Highlight • Castle

Besieged by William the Conqueror in 1092, this castle has changed hands many times. The English, in 1417, occupied it during the winter months. It remained in English hands until the French recaptured it in 1450. The castle's fate was sealed when it served as a refuge for the Earl of Montgomery in 1574. He was beheaded the same year and the demolition of the castle was ordained in 1608. Witnesses to the construction of the castle, the ruins have stood the test of time and are still there today for you to enjoy.

Sainte-Geneviève Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

You might not think so at first glance, but this little chapel is an important place in Bagnoles-de-l'Orne. Erected in 1856 and destroyed in 1923, it was rebuilt in 1939 to become a popular place to stroll from the spa.

Young women wishing to marry came to register their name there to find a companion within the year. In the 20th century, many festivals were also organized there. Today, the place is calmer and lends itself rather to collection.
