Very peaceful

Great market square and pretty half-timbered houses with bricks in the old town of Compiègne.

One of the largest bridges in the city of Compiègne owes its construction to Louis XV. An obelisk was erected in the center of the bridge during its reconstruction in 1949.

The square itself houses a statue of Joan of Arc, a tribute to the city's historical connection to this iconic figure. The Town Hall, with its rich history and stunning architecture, continues to captivate visitors, offering a glimpse into the past while remaining a vibrant part of Compiègne's present.

The architecture of the town hall is a true feast for the eyes. The central structure is dominated by a tall bell tower, flanked by two turrets connected by a decorative railing. This imposing façade, 47 meters high and 24 meters wide, is decorated with striking Gothic elements such as pinnacles and basket arches. The large niche now houses a high relief depicting the equestrian statue of Louis XII. It is an original creation from 1869 by the sculptor Henri-Alfred Jacquemart in the realistic style so prevalent at the time. However, contrary to the usual appearance of equestrian statues during the reign of Louis XII, Henri-Alfred Jacquemart chose not to build a horse walking "à l'amble," that is, with both straight legs raised simultaneously. On October 12, 1530, a clock was placed on the summit of the bell tower. From that time on, every quarter of an hour, she animated three wooden jaquemarts with bell hammers. The Compiègneis quickly gave them three nicknames corresponding to the enemies of the time: Langlois for the English, Flandrin for the Flemish, and Lansquenet for the Germans. Even today, they chant the life of the city by "punching the time," that is, by striking their hammer to strike the hours.

Located on the left bank of the Aronde Valley, Braisnes is a site of very ancient origins, once crossed by the secondary Roman road from Champlieu to Roiglise. The church's dedication to Saint Stephen is another sign of the site's antiquity. Destroyed during the First World War, the previous church, apparently rebuilt late in the 1910s, had no particular features. The current one is a small, carefully constructed but largely unoriginal building. A neo-Romanesque pastiche, it simply comprises a single nave and a semicircular apse. On the façade, the small portal topped by a gable opens beneath a triplet of windows. Inside, pilasters aligned with the buttresses house the transverse beams of the wood and plaster vault and divide the nave into four bays. https://www.eglisesdeloise.com/monument/braisnes-eglise-saint-etienne/
