The cycling classic Paris – Roubaix has not started in Paris since 1977 but in front of this castle. Parts of the palace complex including three different museums can be visited. The large castle park is open daily and admission is free.

Route Forestiere - car-free

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

Beautiful undulating car-free road through the forests north of Compiegne. Along the way you will encounter several characteristic signposts that indicate the local unpaved paths. As a cyclist, however, you better stay on this path, the only paved passage. Recommended!

Notre-Dame d'Ourscamp Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

This enchanting place exudes history. It features dilapidated abbey ruins, one wing of the magnificent Baroque façade still intact, and the other half with bullet holes from the 20th-century World Wars. The beauty of the original Romanesque-Gothic buildings is accentuated by the spacious park. An idyll well worth a visit!

Saint-Rémi Church in Ribécourt

Highlight • Religious Site

The Église Saint-Rémi in Ribécourt is a neo-Gothic church originally consecrated in 1887. During the First World War, the building suffered severe damage, as so many others in this region close to the front. Between 1927 and 1930, the church was rebuilt almost identically, as a symbol of resilience and reconstruction.
Architecturally, the church is a fine example of neo-Gothic, with clear references to the Gothic style of the 13th century. Inside, the pillars are particularly striking, each made up of four half-columns, with capitals decorated with leaf motifs. The five-lobed rose windows and the high pointed arches reinforce the vertical character of the building.
A special feature are the stained glass windows, dating from 1954-1955. They were designed by the French master glassmaker Pierre-François Chevalley and give the church a colourful, spiritual atmosphere that reinforces the liturgical character of the building.
