From Prehistory to the Middle Ages without forgetting the reigns of Louis XV and Louis XVI, Nemours has an exceptional historical heritage. Largely crossed by the Loing and its canal, the town owes a large part of its charm to water.

There are only a few of this architecture in France, it remains one of the most remarkable with that of Milly-la Forêt. The construction of the hall, which initially had 8 bays and no south gable, dates back to the end of the 15th century. It followed a first work destroyed by the fire of the village in 1282. The frame whose base is in oak initially rested on the ground which, by humidity, damaged the wood. In 1666, it was necessary to remove a span to build the south gable in masonry, to install transverse and longitudinal oblique reinforcements and to rest the 28 feet on stone plinths (again replaced in 1769). During 2003, it underwent a complete restoration which made it possible to reestablish some truths about its construction and put an end to the legend which attributed its construction to Anne de Pisseleu in 1540 with a chestnut frame explaining the absence of cobwebs. It still houses the Monday morning market.
