Touffreville: Walking Routes and Cultural Heritage

If you are looking for a hotel for a trip to Touffreville, the local points of interest can help you choose where to stay. These include two routes starting at the church, protected cultural heritage, a flour mill on the Fouillebroc and the Chêne à Satan. When planning your trip, you can then decide whether to focus more on the route length, the church, or the connection between the mill and the watercourse.

Trails and route lengths

The 11 km Boucle de la Jacassière and the 4 km Coteaux du Fouillebroc route both start at the church in Touffreville. The difference is seven kilometres: the Coteaux du Fouillebroc route is the shorter option, while the Boucle de la Jacassière is the longer one. Starting at the same point—the church—gives both routes a shared reference point, while their lengths provide a clear distinction for planning. Route details may change; check the information before setting out.

The Chêne à Satan

The Chêne à Satan in Touffreville is estimated to be 200 years old. The directions lead from the RD2 to the entrance of the route forestière du Sabbat, where you can park; from there, it is a 300-metre walk. The tree is on the La Jacassière walking route. The age estimate gives an idea of its age, while the directions specify the access point, parking place and walk that follows.

The kilometre figures describe the two routes; the 300 metres refer to the walk from the specified car park to the tree. This lets you consider the route lengths and access to the natural attraction separately when planning.

Church and protected sites

The church, cemetery and their surroundings in Touffreville have been protected as a registered site since 1 October 1943. The Church of Saint Peter also contains a statue of Saint Peter, which is listed as a protected object. It stands in the western wall area on the north side of the nave. The nave is the long central space of a church; this location description therefore pinpoints the statue’s position inside the building. The date 1 October 1943 refers to the site, while the statue has its own separate protected-object designation. The church thus connects two aspects of a visit to the village: it is the shared starting point for the routes and part of the protected site.

Mill on the Fouillebroc

The La Salle flour mill in Touffreville was built in 1794 on a mill leat diverted from the Fouillebroc. The Fouillebroc is a major tributary of the Lieure. Taken together, these details link the mill’s construction date to a named watercourse and place that watercourse within a larger river system. Touffreville therefore offers different points of interest: the routes starting at the church, its protected cultural heritage and the history of the mill on the Fouillebroc.
