Le Boulay-Morin: the history of the village that hosts the château
- 1184 – The village name is first recorded, in the form Bueleio.
- 13th century – It appears as Booleyum.
- 1469 – The place is named Boulley Morin.
- late 18th century – The church of Saint-André, whose patron saint was the lord of the manor, is built; it keeps a 14th-century Virgin and Child and a fragment of 16th-century stained glass.
- 1793 – The commune is recorded as Le Boulay Morin.
- 2023 – The commune has 814 inhabitants.
The sources consulted contain no detailed history of the château itself, so this section presents the village that hosts it. The name comes from the Old French beoloi, “a birch grove”, and from Morin, the name of a local lord, Morin du Pin, seneschal of Robert I, Count of Meulan. Several members of the Maillet-du-Boulay family, lords of Le Boulay, distinguished themselves in Normandy.
The commune is organised in three parts: the village centre, the Prévostes with the Bois du Boulay, and the hamlet of Mesnil Doucerain. Forests and arable land dominate, and the commune belongs to the Évreux catchment area.
