Saint-Maurice-d'Ételan
France, France
Saint-Maurice-d'Ételan is a serene commune in Normandy's Seine-Maritime department, France, perched on a cliff overlooking a dramatic meander of the Seine River between the Brotonne and Tancarville bridges in the Pays de Caux region.
It is renowned for the Château d'Ételan, constructed from 1494 and hailed as France's first Italian Renaissance-style château, featuring a chapel with early Norman Renaissance stained glass, wall paintings, and statues comparable to those at Blois, Chenonceau, and Amboise, visited by luminaries like Francis I, Catherine de' Medici, Voltaire, and Gustave Eiffel.
The preserved estate includes manicured parks unchanged for centuries, offering panoramic river views and walks amid historic architecture that replaced an earlier fortified castle.
