About Almoner's Manor

The Manoir de l'Aumônerie is a rare example of 13th-century civil Gothic architecture, built in 1214 by the Knights Templar of the Commanderie de Sainte-Vaubourg. The medieval garden features over 200 plant species including medicinal herbs, aromatic plants, a boxwood maze, and an orchard. The 16th-century Chapel Saint-Gorgon contains remarkable Renaissance frescoes depicting the 12 Apostles and 12 Sibyls.

The manor was built in 1214 - the same year King Louis IX (Saint Louis) was born. After the brutal suppression of the Knights Templar in 1312 and the execution of Grand Master Jacques de Molay in 1314, the property passed to the nearby Benedictine Abbey of Saint-Georges de Boscherville, transforming from a Templar estate into a monastic almonry where monks provided charity and hosted distinguished guests.
