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.

Saint-Sulpice Church of Châteaudun

Highlight • Religious Site

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.

Originally, the Red Bridge was built at the end of the 17th century, namely in the years 1685-1686 on the orders of Louis XIV as part of his vast project to build the Maintenon aqueduct entrusted to La Hire and Vauban. The goal of this project was to be able to transport the waters of the Eure from Pontgouin (located west of Maintenon) to the Palace of Versailles. It was from 1684 that studies were carried out by La Hire who discovered that the Eure was approximately 80 feet (27 m) higher than the castle at Pontgouin.
Maintenon was still to this day an intermittent residence of the king's court, and major work was undertaken, such as the digging of the grand canal passing under the aqueduct, the planting of the banks or the drawing of the castle park by Le Nôtre. .

You should know that until 1838, it is by this bridge that the entry into Maintenon was made. The legend attributes its name to the color of the uniform of the soldiers in charge of its guard.

St Martin is a 3rd century Roman legionary. He is often depicted on a horse cutting his coat in two to clothe a poor destitute.
After leaving the Roman army, he became a monk in Ligugé, under the protection of Hilary of Poitiers. But his fame became so great that the inhabitants of Tours captured him and forced him to become their bishop. Other times, other mores!
