Saint-Pierre Church of Montfort-l'Amaury

Highlight • Religious Site

Church of the 15th and 16th centuries, of an impressive and rare size for a small city like Montfort l'Amaury. You can see it from afar when you arrive in the village. It is especially remarkable for its many exterior gargoyles and the collection of Renaissance stained glass windows it offers. It has just benefited from restoration work which has restored its luster. The town center which spreads out around the forecourt is also charming.
To get there, you will not escape, if you come from the east, especially from Paris and its inner suburbs, a small climb to be made on cobblestones...

Maurice Ravel Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

Joseph-Maurice Ravel (born March 7, 1875 in Ciboure; † December 28, 1937 in Paris) was a French composer and, along with Claude Debussy, a main representative of impressionism in music. His best-known work is the orchestral piece Boléro, which was originally conceived as ballet music. (Source: wikipedia)

La Plaine Pond

Highlight • Lake

Here we find a beautiful pond, quite small. You can therefore cross it on a wooden footbridge. This allows you to get closer to the water and feel surrounded by greenery. You will therefore be in the heart of nature! Isn't that the point of a hike, after all?

Étang de Hollande

Highlight • Lake

Developed during the reign of Louis XIV, this set of ponds and hydraulic structures was set up under the supervision of the “engineer, architect and hydraulics engineer”: Vauban himself. The 6 ponds, perched at an altitude of 174 meters, had the primary purpose of draining water in order to supply water to the basins of the Domaine de Versailles.
