William the Conqueror, of course, Duke of Normandy

The church, built on the foundations of a small Gallo-Roman temple, is one of the principal Romanesque buildings in Normandy. It houses the organ by Parizot (1745-1746). On the outskirts of the church, the Guibray Fair was established by William the Conqueror. Starting on the Wednesday before the Assumption, it hosted merchants selling cloth, hides, fabrics, and silks. This important fair also allowed the Falaise region to sell its agricultural products. The largest fair in the west, second in France after Beaucaire, it was as renowned as those in Troyes or Provins. Its famous horse fair lasted until the early 20th century.

Be careful, part of the route is no longer accessible because of a private road (fence), which requires you to turn around. Very pretty route but very quickly muddy in wet weather.

The Porte des Cordeliers is a medieval gate and one of the remains of the fortified enclosure which surrounded the town of Falaise, birthplace of William the Conqueror. The gate was built in the 13th century and was guarded by Franciscan monks, also known as Cordeliers. You can admire the architecture of the gate and its neighboring tower, as well as the view of the countryside and the Château de Falaise.
