The manor of Soisay stands in La Perrière, in the Orne department, at the edge of the Perche regional nature park. Built in the 16th century, it combines a central main building with outbuildings added in 1605, arranged around a courtyard reached by a tree-lined approach. Highlights include an upstairs hall with a carved and painted fireplace, along with a square dovecote built with roussard sandstone corner-stones. A private property, the manor offers guided visits of both grounds and interior during the summer months.
