Château de Mormoulins

Highlight • Castle

The Moulin de Mormoulins is a watermill located on the Eure River in the hamlet of Mormoulins. This mill dates back to the 18th and 19th centuries and is a listed historical monument. You can admire the old stone building, the wooden wheel, and the canal that diverts water from the river as you pass in front of the mill. The mill is surrounded by green fields and trees, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.

Half-timbered house

Highlight • Other

The town of Nogent-le-Roi presents a surprising set of beautiful half-timbered houses from the 15th and 16th centuries.

Some of them hide their age under a protective coating. The others, with their bauge walls and venerable exposed woods, offer moving specimens of an architecture made of asymmetry and whose charm has stood the test of time.

From the main door of the Saint-Sulpice church, listed as a Historic Monument, we gaze at a tight block of houses, constituting the old heart of the city.

The Church of Saint-Sulpice in Nogent-Le-Roi is an impressive church built in the 15th century and which formed part of the defensive wall that protected the entrance to the town. You can admire its beautiful stained glass windows and its wrought iron choir screen inside, as well as its original tower outside. The church is located in the heart of Nogent-Le-Roi, a charming town with old half-timbered houses and a castle.

Pilori Tower of Lormaye

Highlight • Monument

From Maintenon to Nogent-le-Roi, I see a town hall sign accompanied by a 15th century tower. I decided to go there for the tower and there, what was my surprise to discover that the town hall of Lormaye is installed in the tower of the 15th century. I do not think it is common in France but do not hesitate to go there when you are around.

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.
