Picturesque village with its old manors. A small village nestled in the heart of the forest where it is pleasant to live.

In the heart of the Compiègne forest, the Armistice Glade marks the place where the armistice was signed on November 11, 1918, and then that of June 22, 1940. The site today includes the memorial with the “Armistice Wagon” (recreated car), the statue of Marshal Foch and the Alsace-Lorraine monument.

One of the largest bridges in the city of Compiègne owes its construction to Louis XV. An obelisk was erected in the center of the bridge during its reconstruction in 1949.
