In the middle of the 13th century, an old château belonging to Aimery de Muzy is mentioned in St. Georges-Motel that served as a residence for Eudes II Rigaud, the Archbishop of Rouen from 1247 to 1276. From 1427, the Motel lands were owned by the Chevalier Jehan de Pilliers and remained in the family until the French Revolution. In 1590, King Henry IV spent the night on the estate before winning the Battle of Ivry that united France. Eure is also home to the Château de la Héruppe and Le Breuil-Benoît Abbey.
