Tips from the Community
Imagined in the 19th century by the industrialist Jean-Baptiste André Godin, the Familistère de Guise is a unique place in France. Conceived as a true “social palace” for the workers of his factory, this architectural complex combines housing, collective spaces, and cultural facilities. Today transformed into a museum and visitor site, the place offers an immersion into the social and industrial history of the Hauts-de-France region.

The Familistère consisted of 558 apartments and 350 dwellings. The building had a central courtyard under a glass roof. The residents had a very comfortable and luxurious life. All dwellings and apartments had running water, a garbage chute, and two toilets. There were also community gardens, daycare centers, and schools. Because Jean-Baptiste André Godin was against child labor, every child could go to school.

Very nice little village with pretty churches and monuments; a few cafes, restaurants and bakeries of course.

The track runs along the Oise all the way, first in town, then between the fields and the barges. On arrival at the Croix Saint Ouen, you have to drive through the village and on small roads to catch up with the cycle paths inside the forest. It is best to start south of Compiègne in the ZAC de Mercières, near the swimming pool and the ice rink. The place is easy to spot. The walk is very nice and runs along the Oise. You always have to stay on your side.
