モルトフォンテーヌのおすすめツーリングルート

View to the West, ideal for sunsets

Nice path at the exit of Vémars, with a short steep climb halfway through. You can then either go down towards Moussy-le-Neuf, or go towards the forest of Ermenonville.

Pleasant cycle path along the ponds. It avoids the village and the departmental road.

An ultra peaceful and beautiful little path

Moussy-le-Neuf is a commune in the French department of Seine-et-Marne (region Île-de-France) and has 2392 inhabitants (2005). The place is part of the arrondissement of Meaux. The village square is quite cozy with the town hall, the church, the hall. Heritage does not always date back several centuries. Far from there. Just look at the public facilities that have flourished in recent decades and are mainly used by our youth: school, recreation center, sports or culture halls. The town of Moussy le Neuf can be proud of its modern built heritage, just like the old one, as it is regularly maintained and moreover used by many users. However, it is a building that deserves special attention. This is the hall built between the town hall and the church in 2012 and inaugurated in December of the same year.

Het Kasteel van Mortefontaine (Frans: Castle of Mortefontaine) is een kasteel in de Franse gemeente Mortefontaine. Het kasteel is een beschermd historisch monument sinds 2004. Het kasteel is echter niet direct te bezoeken. The Chateau de Mortefontaine is a 17th century French chateau located in Mortefontaine, in the Oise department and the Hauts-de-France region. Built during the period between 1600 and 1630 for the lord of Plailly-Montmélian, Philippe Hotman, it became the power center of the Marquisate of Plailly-Montmélian, erected in 1654, whose administrative headquarters remained in Plailly. The castle is best known for having been the country residence of Joseph Bonaparte from 1798 to 1814, which makes it a high place of social life. Today it is a private residence, which has lost its splendor after having served as a school between 1949 and 1958, then as a luxury hotel from 1987. Of the English-style park designed in 1770, nothing remains significant on this part of the domain. In the central Middle Ages, the châtellenie of Montmélian, on which Mortefontaine depends, belonged to the crown, until King Philippe-Auguste gave it in exchange for the seigniory of Vernon to Richard de Vernon and his son Richard. A large part of the land belongs to the Bouteiller de Senlis family. Richard II of Vernon has no male descendants. His daughter Marie married the knight Guillaume Calletot, who decided to give all his possessions in the country of France to the abbey of Saint-Denis in 1283. Mortefontaine therefore had two lords, the abbey of Saint-Denis represented by a provost called procurator. and lord, and Jean le Bouteiller, lord of Chantilly. In 1345, Guillaume IV le Bouteiller, heavily in debt, gave up the entire Montmélian domain to his brother-in-law Robert de Clermont, and only kept the "square tower" as a residence.
