To make a day of it

Manoir des Mathurins stands in Lisieux (Calvados), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

At the northern edge of Lisieux, in the Touques valley, the Manoir des Mathurins stands with its two half timbered pavilions connected by a long two storey gallery. Its original purpose is uncertain, though it may be the building the town was authorised to erect in 1584 to house the sick during outbreaks of disease. Left abandoned since the early 2000s and damaged by the storm of 1999, the structure is mainly viewed from outside.
