Culture

The church of Saussey has the floor plan of a Latin cross. It also includes a bell tower vestibule and a stone entrance portal porch dating from the 16th century. The stained-glass window of the Church of Saint Martin in Saussey also dates from the 16th century.

The Manoir d’Argences was built between 1607 and 1815. The origins of the La Réauté manor house may date back to the 15th or 16th century. It may also feature architectural elements from the time of Louis XIII, including a portal with a curved upper section and a reconstructed window with tracery or a mullioned division.

In the immediate vicinity of Saussey is a church considered to be the “Cathedral Notre-Dame de Coutances”.
