コルミシーのおすすめツーリングルート

While staying on the asphalt, you can cover more than 24 km. From the St. Brice Courcelles side, you can go up to La Neuvillette, then to Courcy, it's an unpaved road (passable but not for road bikes). After Courcy, there's asphalt up to Berry au Ferry (this allows you to discover the Sapigneul Owl, about 150 m on dirt road). On the other side, after Sillery, you can continue to Beaumont (asphalt). Then, on a dirt road passable by mountain bike, you can go to the Billy Arch, where the canal passes through a tunnel.

Beautiful cycle path along the water.

Pouillon is a former Gallo-Roman village that once served as a fortified camp along a Roman road between Bordeaux and Pamplona. In the centre you will find traditional houses, a village square and the impressive Église Saint-Martin, an 11th-century Romanesque church with Gothic features, colourful stained glass windows and a marble altar. The Bénarrucq chapel, a former stop for pilgrims on their way to Santiago de Compostela, is nearby and adds to the historic character of the village.

Villers-Franqueux was badly hit during the First World War. In 1915, the village was almost completely destroyed by artillery bombardments. Reconstruction only began after the war, during which the current village image largely emerged. The war memorial and the town hall are reminders of this dramatic period in the village's history. The town hall dates from the 1920s and has remained virtually unchanged in terms of architecture since then. It is a fine example of the reconstruction architecture of the interwar period, with a sober but elegant style that is typical of that period.

This monument honours the inhabitants of Villers-Franqueux who were killed or missing during the First World War. The village itself was badly affected by war violence and largely destroyed. The monument symbolises the local suffering and the resilience of the community.

This memorial commemorates the residents of Cauroy-lès-Hermonville who were killed or missing in the Great War (World War I) and World War II.
