Visit of Villers-sur-Mer - The presbyteral manor

Dating from 1750, this presbytery is typical of Norman and Pays d'Auge architecture.
It was threatened with destruction twice at the end of the 19th century before becoming communal property in 1904. Thanks to renovations between 1977 and 1979, the presbytery regained its original appearance.
The original half-timbering was rediscovered, and above the entrance door of the presbytery, the crosses of Saint Andrew, a rare feature in the Pays d'Auge. Finally, a glazed transom with small woodwork and half-arches tops the door, in harmony with the crosses.
The building located to the west of the presbytery is a former sheepfold from the second half of the 19th century which was located in the Villers marsh. This building was moved piece by piece from the marsh to its present location.
