Crouttes is home to the Ancien prieuré Saint-Michel, which was founded at the end of the 10th century and was under the authority of Jumièges Abbey. The Prieuré Saint-Michel is protected as a historic monument. The priory includes a tithe barn. In 2016, its gardens comprised a rose garden, an iris garden, a medicinal plant garden, a wild garden and a water lily pond.
Those who choose Crouttes for their stay can opt to rent a holiday apartment.
