Gate of access, barn, dovecote: inscription by order of 22 December 1954
Origin and history
The nearby farm of the church of Guiseniers is a historic monument located in the department of Eure, in the Normandy region. Dating from the 16th century, it is distinguished by its typical architecture of this period, including agricultural and residential elements. The site is particularly remarkable for its access gate, barn and dovecote, which were registered as Historic Monuments by order of 22 December 1954. These protections highlight the heritage importance of these structures, which are representative of the Norman Renaissance farms.
The location of this farm, in the immediate vicinity of the church of Guiseniers, suggests a historical link with the community and religious life of the village. In modern times, farms played a central role in the local economy, often associated with agricultural and craft activities. Their proximity to places of worship reflected the social and spatial organization of villages, where the church and farms formed structural poles.
Today, the farm is a private property, which limits its accessibility to the public. However, its inscription in the title of Historical Monuments guarantees the preservation of its most emblematic elements. The available coordinates place the site at 1 Rue Omer Canteloup, confirming its integration into the current urban fabric of Guiseniers. The accuracy of its location is considered satisfactory, thus facilitating its identification and heritage valuation.
Available sources, including Monumentum and internal data, provide administrative and historical information about this monument. These include its Insee code (27307) and its attachment to the arrondissement of Evreux, in Haute-Normandie. These details reinforce the understanding of its territorial anchor and its importance in local heritage.
