April 21, 2026, Église Saint Thibault

Located in the commune of Chevru, 15 km south-east of Coulommiers, the Saint-Thibault church has a complex history. Towards the end of the 11th and the beginning of the 12th century, the church was dedicated to Saint-Thibault. This testifies to a significant attachment to the Champagne region, of which Saint Thibault (born in Provins around 1030) is a native. The architecture of the building, modified several times since the Middle Ages, underwent numerous renovation works in the 19th century which make its study difficult. If a church is mentioned in Chevru in the 10th century, the choir visible today dates from the end of the 12th century. A nave was added to it at an indeterminate date. In the 17th century, a north collateral was built, probably extended in the 19th century by a sacristy. A fairly complete set of 18th-century furnishings (wrought iron enclosure, altarpiece, paneling, altar) classified as Historic Monuments, is still in place in the choir. It was the subject of several restorations between 1997 and 2000, as was the bell tower in 1998, 2006, and 2007.

Située en hauteur, au sommet de la célèbre butte de Doue, l'église Saint-Martin de Doue se dresse sur un lieu de culte déjà utilisé du temps des Celtes. La fondation de l'église daterait elle de l'époque de Saint-Martin (VIe siècle), même si aucune trace n'en subsiste aujourd'hui. Le bâtiment actuel de l'église Saint-Martin date du XIIIe siècle et n'a subit que peu de modification au fil du temps. A la nef, basse et classique à charpente de bois, succède une nef élevée - comparable à celle de Vaudoy-en-Brie - dont les hautes baies vitrées fournissent une importante lumière au bâtiment. Les transepts sont eux aussi agrémenté de larges ouvertures et complète l'aspect monumental de l'édifice. Seul élément ultérieur au XIIe siècle, le clocher porche de l'église est construit vers 1827 en remplacement d'un flèche qui surmontait le transept et frappée par la foudre. Il abrite les cloches de l'église. A l'intérieur, la décoration de l'édifice est riche, et surtout marqué par certains chapiteaux de colonne sculptés et peints de la fin de l'époque romane. Les boiseries du choeur, datées du XVIIIe siècle, ont la particularité d'avoir été offerte à sanctuaire par Louis XVI en personne, encore Dauphin de France, à l'occasion d'une chasse dans les forêts environnantes. Eglise du ; XIIIe siècle, clocher-porche du XIXe siècle Architecture ; Gothique. Visite le Dimanche Après Midi : http://www.balades-en-brie.com/brie/doue/eglise-saint-martin.html] Redescendons la butte par la route nous sommes toujours sur le GR 11. Nous débouchons face au château (grosse propriété que j’ai pris pour une ferme). Nous débouchons sur une route que nous prenons à gauche, laissons une rue sur la droite puis coupons la D 37 poursuivons en face par un chemin dans les champs nous buttons sur une parcelle et notre chemin tourne à gauche. Nous longeons la Chevrie ferme ou ancienne ferme devenue chambre d’hôte et nous prenons la route sur la droite, nous sommes toujours sur le GR 11. Après les vallons du Petit & du Grand Morin nous retrouvons le plateau de brie avec ses betteraves. Laissons les routes que nous rencontrons et traversons les Petits Montgoins, nous coupons la D 204 et prenons le chemin après avoir longé un dépôt de pierre faisant rapidement fourche ou nous prenons la branche de gauche. Nous descendons sur un chemin caillouteux faisant souffrir les chevilles dans le bois Marcou. Nous débouchons sur un chemin que nous prenons à gauche toujours le GR 11 et retrouvons un balisage jaune. Heureusement que je ne suis pas le GR de Saint Jacques de Compostelle la branche Reims – Paris, je ne vois que des croix bleu et jaune mais aucune balises indiquant l’itinéraire à suivre. Cela doit dérouter les Jacquaires il est si bien tracé, et matérialisé par des chambres d’hôtes dans les Ardennes, qu’ici on a un désert de balise. Après un virage longeons le ru Choisel (dans ce lieu j’ai l’impression d’être dans les Monts d’Ambazac). Dans mon topo oral le PR ne porte pas ce nom là, il porte le nom du hameau le Ru de Vrou situé en limite du plateau. Quittons une branche du jaune remontant sur la gauche traversons le ru et poursuivons le GR 11 notre chemin fait fourche nous rencontrons encore des croix jacquaires, nous prenons à gauche. Nous longeons une aire de mobil-homes et de petits chalets. Nous débouchons sur un chemin formant Té et prenons la branche de Gauche, nous grimpons la colline et ce n’est pas facile sur ses cailloux de meulières et cette marne qui glisse sous les chaussures. Traversons la D 204 poursuivons en face. Le chemin fait fourche laissons la branche de droite à la seconde fourche il y a un trou dans le balisage du GR, il passe d’après la carte par la D 114, seulement je n’ai pas vu de balisage. Je suis donc redescendu les quelques mètres pour suivre le balisage jaune (sur la droite lorsque l’on monte) le chemin n’est pas facile en automne ; ornières pleines d’eau et terrain très glissant, mais c’est mieux que le bitume. Nous longeons des prairies et laissons les chemins descendant sur la droite desservant des propriétés privés. Après une énième fourche nous prenons à gauche. Nous débouchons malgré tout sur la D 114 ou nous retrouvons les marques du GR à l’entrée de Romeny, que nous prenons à droite sur quelques centaines de mètres rue grande puis à gauche la rue du cloud. nous prenons ensuite à droite le sentier intra muros qui devient à son extrémité rue Albert Besnard nous sommes toujours à Romeny. Traversons la Grande Rue (D114) puis la rue de la mare, prenons en face le chemin alternant entre champs et bois. Après un virage nous débouchons sur un chemin formant Té et prenons à droite, puis à la rencontre de la fourche encore la branche de droite, On aperçois sur la gauche Jouarre [La ville est située sur un plateau à 150 m d'altitude. Avec 4 219 hectares, c'est en termes de superficie la seconde commune de Seine-et-Marne après celle de Fontainebleau. La racine toponymique de Jouarre renvoie sans doute à une ancienne occupation celte, peut-être le gaulois duro, "porte" d'où "forteresse", ou divoduro, "forteresse divine"".Domus Dei de Jotro - Jouerre-en-Brie - Juere - Jouarre-Balleau et Courcelles. Au cours de la Révolution française, la commune porte le nom de Jouarre-la-Montagne. l’essor jotrancien est à rechercher dans la première moitié du VIIe siècle, lorsque saint Adon fonde à cet endroit une abbaye, encore en activité à l’heure actuelle. Les invasions normandes du IXe siècle, les dégradations de la guerre de Cent Ans au XVe siècle, la Révolution française, autant d’événements majeurs qui ont touché cette commune. Mais le patrimoine local est resté intact, et si chaque époque a laissé sa trace, c’est pour mieux révéler ce qui avait été fait antérieurement… Ainsi Jouarre reste l’une des rares communes de la région à conserver autant de vestiges des temps révolus. Joyau du patrimoine et de l’art mérovingien, les cryptes de Jouarre demeurent un ensemble unique en Europe de par leur conservation et de par leur âge. En 1915, les bâtiments de l'abbaye de Jouarre sont réquisitionnés pour servir d'hôpital militaire à l'arrière du front.

This church is distinguished by its location at the top of the Butte de Doue. In addition to offering beautiful views, this place of particular geological interest allows you to learn about the sedimentary layers of the region.

This “cave” is in reality nothing natural since it is a reproduction of that of Massabielle, called the “Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes” cave in which Bernadette Soubirous says she saw her mother appear to her. Jesus. It is located south of the village on the heights of the Aubetin valley. It took place on land donated by Robert Olivier, a farmer from the town. This grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes was built in 1958, the centenary year of the apparitions of Our Lady in Lourdes. Created and built by Father Jean Fabing, parish priest of Amillis, it was built by workers from Moselle with the help of the parishioners of Amillis, Chevru and Dagny and many friends and benefactors on this land in the Bois de la Croix . Inauguration and blessing on July 13, 1958 by Monsignor Georges Romain, Vicar General. In 1962 Pope John XXIII granted the plenary indulgence to all those who helped with the construction of the building and to all those who come to make pilgrimage there. From this day on, the cave has enjoyed real local success, demonstrated by the crowds that flocked to it during the procession on August 15. Carefully maintained by the faithful of the village and surrounding areas, the Notre-Dame-de Lourdes cave is open daily to all those who wish to stop there. Pilgrimage on August 15.
