Le Tilleul

Highlight • Religious Site

The parish church of Tilleul is named after Saint Martin. It is made up of a large nave rebuilt in the 18th century. separated from the aisles by semi-circular arcades supported by Tuscan columns. The choir, which was spared during the reconstruction, is a testimony to the old building located at the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries. It ends with an apse with three cut sides. The prismatic section arches which support the vaults fall on lamp bases. Elegant pendants adorn the keystones. The elevation is one story. The tracery windows are flamboyant in style. The opening above the main hall is wider and preserves stained glass windows representing the crucifixion, scenes from the life of Saint Martin and the legend of Saint Hubert, some fragments of which date from the origin of the building. The stone baptismal font with prismatic molding is probably from the beginning of the 16th century. On the triumphal arch, a polychrome wooden Christ is a work of the 15th century. The sacristy is an old stately chapel dating from 1601. For the work to reinforce and cover the slate bell tower, topped with a spire, the Safeguarding of French Art granted aid of 25,000 F in 1993.

the castle:
A place for Belle Epoque celebrations
The Clos des Fées bears witness to an abundant period, before the war of 1914, the Belle Epoque. Writers, painters, musicians met in Etretat. They also liked to frequent the inn of "la Belle Ernestine" in Saint-Jouin-Bruneval. She met the painter Albert Besnard, it was their son who had the castle of the clos des fées built in 1902.
In 2013, a collective demanded that this endangered castle be saved. Today he has been granted.
"This castle, pearl of the Alabaster Coast, was built at the very beginning of the 20th century by Louis Besnard, architect and mayor of Saint-Jouin-Bruneval. He is the son of the "beautiful Ernestine" (famous for its proximity to Courbet, Corot, the Dumas, Offenbach, Maupassant...) and Albert Besnard, Parisian painter and decorator of the Science Room of the Paris City Hall, the vestibule of the Paris School of Pharmacy, the chemistry amphitheater of the Sorbonne, the ceiling of the Comédie-Française, the dome of the Petit Palais."...
The tragedian Sarah Bernardt was one of the guests at the St Jouin Bruneval estate. Legend has it that she appeared in a tray on a bed of rose petals. Typically Belle Epoque!
The actress came as a neighbor. Le Havre was his starting point for his theatrical tours in America. Sarah Bernhardt had acquired in Sainte-Adresse

La Poterie-Cap d'Antifer

Highlight • Other

Long an agricultural town, La Poterie-Cap-d'Antifer has had a relatively peaceful history interspersed with Norman and English invasions. But it was mainly in the 20th century, during the Second World War, that the village distinguished itself with, in particular, the destruction of a German radar by British paratroopers and Norman resistance fighters in February 1942 as part of Operation Biting. . The lighthouse itself suffered from the events with its destruction in 1944 during a bombardment.
