Les Andelys

[4] Other interesting buildings are the hôtel du Grand Cerf dating from the first half of the 16th century, and the chapel of Sainte-Clotilde, close by a spring which, owing to its supposed healing powers, is the object of a pilgrimage.

[4] Grand Andely has a statue of Nicolas Poussin, a native of the place.

Petit Andely sprang up at the foot of the eminence on which stands the Château Gaillard, now in ruins, but formerly one of the strongest fortresses in France.

[4] It was built by Richard I of England at the end of the 12th century to protect the Norman frontier, was captured by the French in 1204 and passed finally into their possession in 1449.

[4] The church of St Sauveur at Petit Andely also dates from the end of the 12th century.
