About the location

Manoir de l'Aumônerie dit Ferme des Templiers

54 chemin de Saint Gorgon, 76840 Saint-Martin-de-Boscherville

Seine-Maritime
Normandie

The Manoir de l'Aumônerie (called Ferme des Templiers) was built by the Templars of the Commanderie de Saint-Vaubourg in Val-de-la-Haye in 1214\. When the Order was abolished at the beginning of the 14th century, it belonged to the monks of Saint-Georges-de-boscherville. Leased to a farmer throughout the Old Regime, it was transformed into a farm after the Revolution. It includes a two-storey limestone dwelling, with a staircase turret on the east façade, two buildings adjoining the dwelling (a wooden-panelled barn and a press), a set of buildings distributed in a pen (shed, kennel, cistern), a well near the house and a small 16th century chapel dedicated to Saint-Gorgon, decorated with frescoes representing the 12 Sibylles and the 12 Apostles. A medieval garden with water trail has been recreated, in which the visitor can discover vegetable and medicinal plants.
