There are only a few of this architecture in France, it remains one of the most remarkable with that of Milly-la Forêt. The construction of the hall, which initially had 8 bays and no south gable, dates back to the end of the 15th century. It followed a first work destroyed by the fire of the village in 1282. The frame whose base is in oak initially rested on the ground which, by humidity, damaged the wood. In 1666, it was necessary to remove a span to build the south gable in masonry, to install transverse and longitudinal oblique reinforcements and to rest the 28 feet on stone plinths (again replaced in 1769). During 2003, it underwent a complete restoration which made it possible to reestablish some truths about its construction and put an end to the legend which attributed its construction to Anne de Pisseleu in 1540 with a chestnut frame explaining the absence of cobwebs. It still houses the Monday morning market.

St-Mathurin Basilica - Very beautiful Gothic church of which only the chevet remains intact. The bell tower and the western facade are in ruins and the southern facade has collapsed.

It is too beautiful. This is what we knew how to build without a crane and without cement. If only we could do as our fathers did.

Although the church is commonly referred to as a basilica, it has not been designated as such by the pope and is therefore not a basilica under Church rules. This church had to undergo many vicissitudes over the centuries, damage from armed troops, hurricanes, storms. Irremediable damage took place during the wars of religion. Restoration work was carried out in an emergency and without great care during the 19th century, in order to allow the reopening of the church for worship. The church was listed as a Historic Monument by Prosper Mérimée in the mid-19th century. And so it is that a part has remained in a state of ruin, while the main body of the church remains maintained, and can therefore shelter the exercise of worship or religious ceremonies. Please note that there is a drinking water tap with free access under the trees in the small square below the church.

If you think straight roads are boring, I dare you to take this one. 4 kilometers of road to yourself, no cars, no motors, just you and some runners in the forest. Gorgeous
