To celebrate the 400th anniversary of the estate, a brand new exhibition invites visitors to discover the history of a Norman family and its estate, from the time it was founded in the early 17th century by Charles II Le Pesant, right up to the present day with the creation of the Sculpture Garden.

. The 100th anniversary of the last Pegasus cyclecar created by Étienne d'Arboval, the family's grandfather and former mayor of the village ;

. The 60th anniversary of the pony club founded by Louis de Pas, a pioneer of pony riding ;
