Canals of Rambouillet Castle

Highlight • Castle

The Château de Rambouillet, whose construction began in 1368, was the secondary residence of Louis XVI and Napoleon. It was then the presidents who lived there, from 1896 to 2009. In July 1960, Charles de Gaulle and Konrad Adenauer signed a Franco-German treaty in the castle.

Today it is mostly used for international conferences. The park offers beautiful natural landscapes, with bodies of water and a very welcoming atmosphere.

The castle was built in 1368 by Jean Bernier. It was the summer residence of French presidents for over 100 years, from 1896 to 2009.

Épernon town hall

Highlight • Other

Passing in front of it, the building housing the Hôtel de ville impresses with its elegance. The contrast between the minerals used for the facades, the roof and the large chimneys accentuates this grandiose aspect.

Originally, the Red Bridge was built at the end of the 17th century, namely in the years 1685-1686 on the orders of Louis XIV as part of his vast project to build the Maintenon aqueduct entrusted to La Hire and Vauban. The goal of this project was to be able to transport the waters of the Eure from Pontgouin (located west of Maintenon) to the Palace of Versailles. It was from 1684 that studies were carried out by La Hire who discovered that the Eure was approximately 80 feet (27 m) higher than the castle at Pontgouin.
Maintenon was still to this day an intermittent residence of the king's court, and major work was undertaken, such as the digging of the grand canal passing under the aqueduct, the planting of the banks or the drawing of the castle park by Le Nôtre. .

You should know that until 1838, it is by this bridge that the entry into Maintenon was made. The legend attributes its name to the color of the uniform of the soldiers in charge of its guard.

Saint-Piat Mill

Highlight • Monument

The Moulin de Saint-Piat is a water mill located on the Eure and dating from the 11th century where it was once used for the production of flour and the extraction of oil. You can admire the architecture of the mill, which was extended in 1865, and enjoy the view of the river and the nearby church. The mill is also a good place for birdwatching, as you may be able to see herons, kingfishers and ducks along the water.

Lavoir de Soulaires

Highlight • Monument

Beautiful, recently renovated washhouse. Its water is supplied by a spring, not the river. It's a great place to take a break.
