ST. CECILIA'S CHURCH

In 1893, an archaeological site was discovered when a silo was dug. The building is identified as Sainte-Cécile de Portejoie, cited in a text from 1025. Its origin dates back to at least the 8th century. This village would correspond to that of Portejoie, which moved towards the end of the 10th century. Since then, archaeologists have discovered five Neolithic collective graves and a megalith in the cemetery against the church. These Neolithic collective graves probably served as landmarks in the landscape. This archaeological site borders the Great Noah's Ornithological Reserve created in 1987 at the confluence of the Eure, Andelle and Seine rivers, an important migratory corridor, where nearly 210 species of birds can be observed.
