Discover the oldest cheese dairy in Brie! The Ganot cheese dairy, originally the oldest cheese refiner in Seine-et-Marne, also opens its doors to visitors. You will discover the secrets of bries during a guided tour that is as informative as it is delicious. More than 125 years of know-how! Founded in 1895 by Mr. Alis, the cheese dairy began its activity by selling cheeses on the region's markets. At that time, they sold "fresh salt" brie for a maximum of 2 days or "black brie" for a minimum of 6 months, matured in the cheese dairy's attics. In 1948, cellars equipped with cold storage were dug to mature farmhouse bries from neighboring farms. The Ganot cheese dairy continues the same activity. It collects cheeses from the Brie region. In its cellars, it refines organic farmhouse brie (from its association with the Ste-Colombe farm), Coulommiers, Brie de Meaux AOP and Brie de Melun AOP. Each cheese is given special attention depending on its nature and origin.

On September 5, 1914, nearly a million French soldiers and their British allies, defeated fighters from the deadly border battles, exhausted by an exhausting retreat, resolutely turned around and resumed the offensive! This would be the first Battle of the Marne, a victory at the cost of 7 days of fierce fighting on a front line of more than 200 kilometers, breaking the German rush, protecting Paris and saving France from invasion. La Ferté-sous-Jouarre was one of the theaters of this fighting. On Sunday, November 4, 1928, the inauguration of the Memorial took place, in the presence of Marshal Foch. This imposing monument bears, engraved in stone, 3,888 names of officers and soldiers who fell during this battle in September 1914. These men belonged to the British Expeditionary Force.

The current church replaces the old church, which was once burned down by the English during the Hundred Years' War. The parish church of Saint Pierre-Saint Paul was built in the 15th century and completed in the 16th century. It was restored in the 17th and 19th centuries. As early as the 7th century, a primitive church named Saint Pierre was built on the site of the current parish church, according to the monastic custom of multiplying places of prayer on the same site. These places were not reserved for nuns, and the population had the possibility of coming to pray there. This church had a square bell tower, similar to the Romanesque Tower of the Abbey. It was burned down during the Hundred Years' War by the English, and only this bell tower is said to have survived. The construction of the church that we see today began around 1440, and was completed in the 16th century. This broad period of construction allows us to see the transition between Gothic and Renaissance architecture. The Saint Pierre-Saint Paul church has been damaged many times and has therefore often been restored. This church houses among other things a polychrome stone Pietà from the 16th century, as well as a tomb of the famous Michel Colombe from the 16th century. You can also admire the reliquaries where the relics of the Holy Abbesses rest. Opening hours: From 01/11/2024 to 30/04/2025 10:00 - 17:00 ---------- From 01/11/2025 to 30/04/2026 10:00 - 17:00
