Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul The construction of the church is said to have been initiated by Don Roger, abbot of the very powerful Benedictine abbey of Coulombs from 1115 to 1174. At that time, the abbey stood near Nogent-le-Roi, a former fortified town located twelve kilometers away on the banks of the Eure. Spread over more than 80 parishes, it had a considerable influence in the region until the Revolution, whether from a religious, economic or social point of view. The Romanesque style that it had adopted since its original construction was reworked in the 16th century by the opening of tall Gothic windows around the choir. Finally, in the following century, during the Wars of Religion, the church suffered serious damage. When peace returned, the entrance porch was finally rebuilt in the elegant Renaissance style. In 1950, a fire destroyed the church and all its furniture; it was restored at the end of the 20th century.

At the edge of this road a pond which forms with the forest which surrounds it a protected natural area. Each year, during the thaw (roughly from February to April), a "toadstool" is installed on the road that runs along the pond. But what is a toaddrome exactly? So, it is not a place where one could indulge in clandestine bets on toad races, but a device intended to prevent these poor beasts from being crushed by cars in crossing the road to breed and lay their eggs in the pond on the other side of the road. Indeed, thousands of common toads, but also frogs and newts, begin their long prenuptial migrations around March each year. They go to the nearest pond or pond to breed. Once their duty is done, they leave the aquatic environment to return to their summering areas where they will spend most of their time feeding. In order to avoid a carnage of amphibians on the road, a tarpaulin is planted 600m on each side of the road to block their passage. In various places a hole has been made in which a bucket is buried. By looking for a passage all along the tarpaulin, the toad will inevitably end up at the bottom of a bucket. Every morning, volunteers come to collect toads and other frogs and drop them off on the other side of the road.

Around the 10th century, Mormoulins Castle stood in the middle of the marshes. Access from Chaudon was via a sandstone causeway, the foundations of which still exist. The marshes filled in over the centuries, becoming the meadows bordering the current picturesque Mormoulins road. Legend has it that one of its owners was killed in a duel the day after his wedding, and a son was born nine months later. Another legend claims that a captain of the guards charged with defending the castle was killed along with a hundred men the day before his wedding. In 1774, the Receiver General of Finance of Picardy, brother-in-law of the Pompadour family, purchased it. It was he who had the canals dug, which are still visible today. In 1781, the owner was Mr. Fergeol, from Villers, whose widow sold the castle ruins in 1817 to Mr. du Temple de Chevrigny. Source: mormoulins.fr
