Birthplace of William the Conqueror  — 2 years ago

Worth visiting!

A beautiful town featuring the castle where William was born and the creek behind it where his parents met. A lovely little legend, William’s father, Robert saw his mother, Herleve washing clothes in the creek. He was taken with her and William was born not long after. Before he was known as the Conqueror, he was called William the Bastard since he was. He was more offended when men made reference to his mother’s father being a tanner.
Anyway! Falaise, enchanting, check it out.
