Saint-Nicolas Church of Maule

Highlight • Religious Site

Dedicated to Saint Nicolas, classified as a “historic monument” in 1883, it is a former 11th century abbey church in Romanesque style that has undergone many changes. Topped by a 36-meter-high tower built in the Renaissance, it has a blind triforium and a very beautiful Romanesque crypt.

Half buried under the church, the crypt - the largest in Yvelines - dates from the 11th century, is perfectly preserved and has been completely renovated.

View of Thoiry Castle

Located in the Yvelines, the castle of Thoiry dates from the Renaissance. Now a museum and a zoo, here you can appreciate the building from afar.

Neuville Castle

Highlight • Other

At the turn of this bend in the road, you can see this magnificent castle through the trees, especially in winter when the vegetation has thinned out.
The Château de Neuville, located in the heart of a forest park in Gambais, was built in the 16th century by Joachim de Bellengreville, Grand Provost of the Hôtel du Roy in charge of security and the Court police under Henri IV. Its design is attributed to Jacques Androuet du Cerceau, a famous architect to whom we owe the Louvre gallery, the Pont Neuf and the Hôtel Carnavalet in Paris. The Henri III style building has undergone many transformations over time. During the 2nd World War it was occupied by the German and then American armies, and gradually abandoned.
Since the 1960s and 1970s, the family that owns the place, a descendant of the Marquis de Labriffe who acquired the château in 1795, has embarked on a long and costly restoration program which is still continuing today. To finance this work, the estate is regularly rented for film and television shoots, which is why its silhouette may seem familiar to you. Among the films shot in these places: La vie de château (JP Rappeneau), Peau d'âne (Jacques Demy), Dangerous liaisons (Stephen Frears), Cyrano de Bergerac (JP Rappeneau), Ridicule (Patrice Leconte), but also two seasons of the TV show "The Best Pastry Chef".

Croix de Vilpert Monument

Highlight • Monument

Finding an Egyptian column in the middle of the forest is rather unexpected. In any case, beware, there are not only cycle paths in these woods. The tracks quickly become mountain bike trails.
