Several cultural themes offer points of interest for your trip to Bourgtheroulde-Infreville: different building phases in its churches, pottery, the Musée Maison Berger Paris and named routes. If you are looking for a hotel, you can use these highlights to decide whether you are most interested in religious architecture, craft details, museums or a route.

Churches, Building Phases and Pottery

The parish church of Saint-Laurent has features dating from several centuries. The nave and transept arms date from the 14th century. The tower dates to the first half of the 15th century and has a vaulted ceiling from the 16th century; the choir also dates from that century. The sacristy dates from the 19th century.

The parish church of Saint-Ouen in Infreville has a different chronology: its choir dates from the first quarter of the 16th century, while the nave and west façade date from the 17th century. At Saint-Ouen, the nave and west façade date from the 17th century; at Saint-Laurent, the nave and transept arms date from the 14th century.

The choir and bell tower of the Église d’Infreville are partially protected as historic monuments under an order dated 16 December 1961. The church also houses a lid for the baptismal font made by potters. Another art-historical detail is the statue of the Vierge à l’Enfant in the Église Saint-Ouen in Infreville: it dates from the last quarter of the 15th century and is protected as an object. Together, these details offer insight into different aspects of the churches, from their architectural features to handcrafted objects.

The collection comprises 150 rare pieces in a 120 m² space. Some bear the marks of French manufacturers such as Baccarat, Limoges and Desvres.

Routes and Individual Stops

The Les Potiers route follows a park path to Château Keller and crosses the town hall esplanade. Its description therefore identifies both the route through the park and the crossing of the town hall esplanade. If you are interested in the route, these stops provide more specific guidance than the name alone.

The Circuit des Potiers highlights the farm’s brick-built dovecote behind the town hall. The route description focuses on a single building, making it thematically distinct from the churches and museum objects. Check the latest route description for the Circuit des Potiers before setting out.
