À propos du lieu

Grange aux dîmes

Place Lemarignier, 14150 Ouistreham

Calvados
Normandie

In the heart of its ancient village which has preserved a remarkable medieval heritage, the tithes barn is part of a beautiful set of rural buildings of monastic origin, recently restored. Until the Revolution, Ouistreham was an ecclesiastical, legal and fiscal dependency of the abbey to the Ladies of Caen whose abbess received the tithe (tax in kind representing about the tenth of the harvests, peaches and herds) stored in the barn provided for this purpose. This barn, which is mentioned for the first time in 1257, was abandoned during the so-called Hundred Years War period and probably rebuilt in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries using original elements, to resume its function. It was once part of the farm of the Abbey or Barony, owned by the Abbess patroness of Ouistreham. Tithe Barn
