Beaumont-en-Auge, a viewpoint over the Pays d'Auge

Perched on a natural promontory between Deauville and Pont-l'Évêque, Beaumont-en-Auge offers one of the most beautiful panoramas in Normandy over the green hills of the Pays d'Auge. Birthplace of the mathematician and astronomer Pierre-Simon de Laplace, the village retains remarkable architectural heritage with its half-timbered houses and its church. The Petites Puces are part of this village identity, perpetuating a tradition of conviviality and sharing.

A charity event for the church

The profits from the Petites Puces are donated to the Association for the preservation of the Church of Beaumont-en-Auge, which works for the restoration and maintenance of this heritage building. By participating in this flea market, both exhibitors and visitors directly contribute to the preservation of the communal heritage, giving this day of treasure hunting a solidarity and committed dimension.
