Origin and history
La Ferme du Canihout is a historical monument located in Mesnil-sous-Jumièges, in the Seine-Maritime department of Normandy. Built in the 18th century, it is representative of the farms of that time, with functional buildings and a press, a central element of local wine or cider production. Its architecture reflects the techniques and needs of pre-industrial Norwegian agriculture, where farms played a major economic and social role in the countryside.
The old press of the Canihut Farm, as well as the building that houses it, were classified as Historic Monument by order of 16 July 1943. This protection highlights the heritage importance of this equipment as a witness to traditional crop processing practices. The location of the farm, although documented (address: 2761 Le Conihout, 76480 Le Mesnil-sous-Jumièges), remains approximate according to the available sources, with cartographic accuracy deemed mediocre.
No information is provided on its current accessibility or its possible tourist functions (visits, accommodation).
