Located along the banks of the Andelle River, the Levavasseur spinning mill, nicknamed the "industrial cathedral," is a 19th-century factory in the neo-Gothic style. It is the subject of a conservation project to reveal its unique history and offer the public a place for walking, contemplation, and interpretation.

Nicholas was bishop of Myra (Asia Minor) in the first half of the 4th century. In the 6th century, a church in his name housed his tomb. But, in 1087, sailors from Bari seized his relics and took them to their city, which became the center of his cult. At the same time, the knight Aubert, from Port, near Nancy, brought back a relic of the saint from a trip to Bari. In this locality, which later took the name of Saint-Nicolas-de-Port, several churches were built successively until the beautiful current basilica where many pilgrims would come, following the example of Jeanne-la-Lorraine. When American Protestants, jealous of Catholic festivities, wanted to copy the Christmas celebrations where Saint Nicholas distributed gifts to children, they created the fictional character of Saint Claude ("Santa Claus").

"Beau-voir", the town would be well named: "Beautiful to see". The existence of Beauvoir is drowned in the mists of time, certainly in the first centuries of our era. The "Boutonnière" of the Pays de Bray is a depression 2 to 15 km wide, bordered on each side by more or less marked escarpments (cuestas). Soil erosion is uneven. Some points of resistance have given rise to witness mounds. (The Monts de Sigy, Beauvoir en Lyons..) In this depression, slight undulations create a varied landscape, composed of hedgerow meadows, wetlands, cultivated fields and vast forest massifs. There are clayey soils, suitable for pastures for dairy cattle breeding. On the summits and plateaus, the soil is made up of clay and flint, while the lowest areas are dominated by meadows and forests. The soil is very humid, with a ferruginous subsoil (thermal springs) and iron ore, as well as colored clays (ceramics) and glass industry linked to the forest. In Beauvoir en Lyons, the mosaicist Milan Uzelac has perpetuated the glassmaking tradition on the orientation table. (Orientation table 6 on the Route des Paysages)

The church of Mesnil-Lieubray was built at various times. The oldest parts date back to the 13th century. In the 19th century, the church was annexed by a chapel on the south wall of the choir. It has a very slender bell tower which houses a bell blessed in 1849 and still rung by hand. On your way, you will appreciate pretty houses and a dovecote.
