Tips from the Community
This house of God in Bonneil has chosen the Nativity of the Mother of God Mary as its patron saint. In the biblical writings of the New Testament, her birth is not specifically mentioned, nor are her parents, but already in early apocryphal (i.e., not included in the canon of the official Bible) writings, Saint Anne and her husband Saint Joachim were named as parents. The Church of Saint Anne – located by the Bethesda pool in Jerusalem – is considered the place of the Mother of God's parental home. The Catholic Church celebrates the memorial day „Nativity of Mary“ on September 8, as do Orthodox and Anglican Christians.

Located a few steps from a bend in the Grand Morin, the Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption, in the former hamlet of La Chapelle-sur-Crécy, is reputed to be the second most beautiful church in Brie. Just after the imposing Saint-Etienne Cathedral in Meaux Built in the 13th century, it has unique architectural elements such as an apse vault composed of 12 branches that gives a lot of lightness to the interior of the building. With a total height of 19m under the keystone, the walls of the building have three successive rows of windows and stained glass windows, giving the interior of the building an incomparable luminosity. Located on the edge of the old Nationale 34, the royal road, the Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption still dominates the valley of the Grand Morin and the small washhouse of the Vaudessard stream. Rarely open to the public, even if its interior remains visible, it occasionally serves as a concert hall.

Discover the oldest cheese dairy in Brie! The Ganot cheese dairy, originally the oldest maturing cheese producer in Seine-et-Marne, also opens its doors to visitors. You will discover the secrets of brie, during a guided tour that is as instructive as it is delicious. Over 125 years of expertise! Founded in 1895 by Mr. Alis, the cheese dairy began its activity by selling cheeses at regional markets. At that time, brie was sold "fresh from salt" within 2 days or "black brie" aged for a minimum of 6 months in the cheese dairy's attics. In 1948, caves equipped with refrigeration were dug to mature farm-produced brie from neighboring farms. The Ganot cheese dairy maintains the same activity. It collects cheeses from the Brie region. In its caves, it matures organic farm-produced brie (from its association with the Ste-Colombe farm), Coulommiers, Brie de Meaux AOP, and Brie de Melun AOP. Particular attention is paid to each cheese according to its nature and origin. Prices: Tour + wine tasting: €7.5/adult Tour + milk tasting: €5.00/child (6 to 11 years old) Family***: €20/group ***family composed of 2 adults and 2 children Opening hours: Wednesday: 3:00 PM – 6:30 PM Thursday and Friday: 3:00 PM – 7:00 PM Saturday: 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM then 2:30 PM to 6:30 PM
