Starting from the Garden, heading towards Saint Cyr la Rosière, stop at Sainte Gauburge where you'll find a small Benedictine priory from the 11th century (open every day from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.) as well as an ecological museum presenting the arts and popular traditions of Perche (open every day from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. and mornings by appointment, tel.: 02 33 73 48 06).

Move on until you reach Saint Cyr la Rosière so that you can admire the quite beautiful church of Saint Cyr and Sainte Julitte, its bell tower with a Roman porch is furthermore classified as a historic monument. Small detail: the choir dating from the 15th-century is higher than the nave!
A canvas showing the martyr of Saint Cyr and Saint Julitte as well as a terra-cotta representation of the Burial of Christ from the 16th century are worth the detour. (Monument open every day from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.).

Upon your return, stop by Clémencé to visit theNotre-Dame de Clémencé Chapel.
