Culture

The Église Saint-Nicolas in Aurseulles, formerly in the municipality of Anctoville, bears the French “Architecture contemporaine remarquable” label. It was rebuilt in 1956 by the architect Guignard in a regionalist style.

During the contemporary art trail “Itinéraire, en quête d’artistes” on 30 and 31 March 2019, the Château d’Anctoville in Anctoville, a delegated municipality of Aurseulles, was one of the venues.

History

The building of the Maison d’Enfants Pierre Rayer was constructed from slate from 1881 onwards to house an orphanage for girls. The building later served as an agricultural domestic science school. After being restored following the war, the buildings resumed their function as an orphanage; today, they are a children’s home with a social focus.

Nature

La Ferme de D’Jo is an educational farm founded in 2000 and located in a 3-hectare park. At Ferme de D’Jo, Houdan chickens, Chèvre des Fossés goats, and Cotentin donkeys are presented. The garden comprises small plots and an aromatic plant trail.
