Lisieux and the Pays d'Auge
France > Normandy > Inland Normandy > Lisieux and the Pays d'Auge
The rolling hills and green twisting valleys of the Pays d'Auge stretch south of the cathedral town of Lisieux and are scattered with magnificent half-timbered manor houses. The pastures here are the lushest in the province, their produce the world-famous cheeses of Camembert, Livarot and Pont L'Évêque. And beside them are hectares of orchards, yielding the best of Norman ciders, both apple and pear (poiré), as well as Calvados apple brandy.
