The rural department of Orne in southern Normandy glows with the greenery of forests and meadows and has farming high on the list of occupations. The national stud - Haras du Pin - near Argentan is well known in the horse world and Orne offers many activities for horse enthusiasts.
Orne's capital, Alencon was the lace capital of Europe 400 years ago. Visit the museums dedicated to this craft here and at Argentan which also has a famous castle and two 15th century churches.
