Le canton de Villers-Bocage, au nord d’Amiens, est tres riche en chateaux. Le plus connu est celui de Bertangles, propriete de la famille de Clermont-Tonnerre qui y fit construire vers 1730 une remarquable demeure de style Regence. Mais d’autres chateaux, souvent moins celebres, s’elevent a proximite. Cet itineraire du patrimoine vous propose de les decouvrir: vous cheminerez de la tour medievale de Flesselles jusqu’au parc a l’anglaise de Querrieu, en passant par la charmante folie neo-classique edifiee a Saint-Gratien sur les plans de Jean Rousseau, architecte du theatre d’Amiens. Un second circuit offre des apercus sur l’habitat rural, dont le canton de Villers-Bocage, malgre les denaturations entrainees par la proximite d’Amiens, a conserve de beaux exemples. Alignements de granges en torchis ou en briques, puits couverts, vieux cafes: ce patrimoine souvent menace fait tout le charme des villages de l’Amienois.
