Senots combines religious heritage with an open, agricultural landscape. Three points of reference are helpful for getting your bearings: the Chapelle Sainte-Anne in the hamlet of Bléquencourt, the Church of Saint-Rémi and the regional road connection. There is also a lavoir and a dovecote on a tourist route. Le Moulin de la Noué is a campsite by the river. This gives you a way to choose how to explore Senots based on your interest in architecture, history, rural character or camping.

Chapelle Sainte-Anne in Bléquencourt

The Chapelle Sainte-Anne is in the hamlet of Bléquencourt and can be reached via a private path. If you are considering a visit, it is best to check in advance whether visits are possible; the private path is relevant when planning. The chapel walls are covered with votive offerings. They were left in gratitude for the intercession of Saint Anne, as well as for healings and wishes said to have been granted through her. In the past, a major pilgrimage took place at the chapel every year. Personal offerings of thanks and a former shared religious tradition thus sit side by side.

The Church of Saint-Rémi and its architectural features

The Church of Saint-Rémi in Senots offers a different way to explore the heritage from the chapel’s votive offerings: here, the architectural features shape the description. It consists of a single-nave hall, a bell tower bay and a flat-ended choir. A single-nave hall has one main space with a nave; a flat-ended choir has a straight end. The choir dates from the 12th century and is built above the Ru du Mesnil. The date therefore applies to the choir, while the hall and bell tower bay describe the rest of the layout. These features give architecture enthusiasts specific points of reference for distinguishing the individual parts of the building.

Bléquencourt on the route

Bléquencourt, a hamlet of Senots, also features on a tourist route. The route mentions a lavoir, listed as a point of interest, as well as a private farm with its dovecote. A lavoir is a washhouse, adding an element of everyday community life to the picture of the area. The farm and dovecote belong to an agricultural setting, while the chapel and church are religious sites. These different themes can help you decide which local heritage sites to prioritize according to your interests.

Landscape and regional orientation

Senots lies in a relatively open landscape on the edge of the Thelle plateau. Large-scale arable farming shapes it, along with several wooded areas. The buildings are therefore set in a rural environment that offers a different perspective from the details of their architecture. The RD923 passes through Bléquencourt. At the CCVT level, it is considered an important connecting road between Méru, Chaumont-en-Vexin and Gisors. This regional road connection is another point of reference for finding your way around Senots.
