To make a day of it

Manoir de Lortier stands in Auquainville (Calvados), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 17th century, 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Auquainville, in the Pays d'Auge, the Lortier manor shows its timber-framed facades a short distance from the village church. Built in the 17th century by Pierre Le Bas du Coudray and extended in the following century, the house stands out for its arched window openings and visible timber framework. The 18th century extension left the roof asymmetrical, a feature still noticeable from the surrounding grounds, which also hold an old cider press.
