Beuvron-en-Auge is not known for any particular building, but for its narrow streets and central square, where the historic houses were not destroyed by the Second World War. Apart from the asphalt road and the passing cars, the architecture takes you on a journey back in time.<\/p>\n\n

Here’s a short summary of the village’s history:<\/p>\n\n

Beuvron-en-Auge’s origins probably date back to Gallo-Roman times. The name “Beuvron” appears in other forms in documents as early as the 11th century.<\/p>\n\n

In the 12th century, a small rural community was established. For several centuries, until the end of the 18th century, the Beuvron lands belonged to the powerful d’Harcourt family, who contributed greatly to the village’s economic development.<\/p>\n\n

The town’s development accelerated in the 15th century and reached its peak in the 17th and 18th centuries, when tanning and weaving ensured the village’s prosperity<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

2. Half-timbered houses<\/h2>\n\n
