Pontorson: Holiday Apartments and Houses

Culture

The Église Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix combines pure Romanesque style, the transitional Romanesque style, and Gothic styles from the 13th and 15th centuries. The Maison Guischard de la Ménardière, also known as the Maison romane, has a well-preserved façade structured by arcades; the main part of the building dates predominantly from the 14th and 15th centuries. The Protestant temple Le Prêche in Pontorson is the only Protestant building in the Manche département dating from before the Edict of Nantes of 1598. The Moulin de Moidrey was built in 1806 and restored in 2003.

Whether travelers would like to rent a holiday apartment in Pontorson is a matter of individual trip planning.
