About Alençon

Located on a bend in the River Sarthe, Alençon serves as the capital of France’s Orne department. It is famously the birthplace of Sainte Therese and has long been popular for its production of lace, which has been recognised by UNESCO for its Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Things to do in Alençon

In the heart of Alençon is the Basilica of Notre-Dame, a Gothic masterpiece constructed between the 14th and 16th centuries. It houses a magnificent pipe organ crafted by Jean Daldosso and stained-glass windows depicting scenes from the Old Testament. It was here that Sainte Therese was baptised in 1873, with her life and legacy explored at the Maison Natale de Sainte Therese.

Alençon’s history of craftsmanship is detailed at the Museum of Fine Arts and Lace, which occupies the former Jesuit school of Cour Carree de la Dentelle. It showcases intricate needlepoint works created in the town, as well as examples from Chantilly and Le Puy. In addition to watching live lace-making demonstrations, you can admire paintings dating from the Renaissance period to the 19th century.

Want to stretch your legs? Head to the elegant Parc des Promenades, which is located adjacent to a centuries-old gatehouse, the Château des Ducs. Once a hunting ground for the dukes, it was transformed into a public park in the late 19th century. Stroll between the landscaped flower beds or picnic on the grassy lawns, then say hello to the resident peacocks and goats.

Getting around Alençon

Alençon is around three hours’ drive from Paris and Charles de Gaulle Airport, which has flights to destinations across the globe. Regular trains connect from Caen, Le Mans and Tours to the Alençon railway station and buses travel throughout the town. The centre of Alençon is small enough to explore on foot.
