Medieval treasures of Gisors in one day
Quick Facts
This carefully curated itinerary takes you through Gisors' most significant medieval landmarks, all within comfortable walking distance. Begin your morning at the magnificent 11th-century Château de Gisors, one of Europe's most impressive Norman fortresses perched atop a 30-meter artificial mound, where you'll explore the octagonal keep, underground cellars, and the mysterious Prisoner's Tower with its Templar graffiti. Continue to the cathedral-sized Church of Saint-Gervais-Saint-Protais, a Gothic masterpiece showcasing 400 years of architectural evolution from Romanesque to Renaissance, featuring stunning 16th-century stained glass and the remarkable Tree of Jesse sculpture. Conclude your walk at the charming 15th-century Washhouse on the banks of the Epte River, a protected monument that served as the town's social hub for nearly 500 years. Important: The Château is closed on Tuesdays and requires a guided tour (€9, book in advance). The church and washhouse offer free entry. All three sites are within a 15-minute walk of each other, making this an easy and relaxed day of discovery in historic Normandy.
