Fontaine-la-Guyon

Highlight • Other

At the heart of a 12 ha estate is the Mairie-Château dating from 1684 and acquired by the municipality in 1998. The surrounding park is laid out according to an 18th century plan with star-shaped alleys (some are still visible). Among the hundred-year-old cedars, the oldest was planted in 1779.

Remains of the famous Louis XIV Canal are present in the Park. On the visible portion of the Canal, about 250m, a cooler, ancestor of cold rooms, bears witness to the vestiges of the past.

A space where nature and history surround you.

Highlight • Other

At the instigation of the General Council at the time, a new drinking water borehole was carried out in 1996 along the RD 24 at the exit of the village towards Fontaine la Guyon, flow rate of around 100 m3 / hour, then allowing the supply. three other surrounding towns: Fontaine la Guyon, Mittainvilliers and Vérigny. A catchment protection perimeter encompassed 153 hectares of land (decree of July 31, 2000). A second storage basin of 800 m3 was built at the top of the forest for this occasion. These basins are called "tarpaulins".

Church of Saint Stephen

Highlight • Other

Composed of a Romanesque nave with flat buttresses placed symmetrically on each side (typical of the end of the 11th century or the first half of the 12th century), it was completely remodeled in the 16th century and the end of the 20th century. The bays of the nave are from the 15th century, in flamboyant Gothic style, as is the rose window. The span of the bell tower and the choir, with ribbed vaults, date from the end of the 15th or beginning of the 16th century. As early as the 16th century, the bell tower had a clock, quite rare and expensive for the time. The pillars of the central bay are richly molded and crowned with thin bands of foliage serving as capitals. The windows are decorated with flamboyant tracery of varied designs. The Romanesque portal was also remodeled in the 16th century. The powerful central bell tower with buttresses [formerly had three bells named PIC DAN JON. There will only be one left after the Revolution, the other two having been melted down to make cannons and ammunition.

Saint Remy Church

Highlight • Other

The parish church of Saint-Remy de Vérigny, located in the current new commune of Mittainvilliers-Vérigny, has been documented in the archives since 1126 as being dependent on the abbey of Saint-Père in Chartres. Its construction probably followed shortly after this date, as evidenced by the use of grison for both the buttresses and the frames of certain bays and the large west portal with a grison roller. The proximity of the manor and then the castle of Vérigny, owned by the prestigious families of O and Vieuville until the early years of the 18th century, encouraged donations and legacies in favor of the parish church. It is to Charles II of O that we owe the construction of the north aisle as well as the family chapel in the right bay of the choir, on the north side. The ribbed vaults and the hanging keystones sculpted with little angels evoke the creations of the second quarter of the 16th century such as those of the church of Bérou-la-Mulotière. If the only vestiges of stained glass windows preserved date from the
