A village of character located in the heart of the forest, which offers a pleasant and exotic stopover on several tours crossing the Compiègne forest.

for its old stones, its abbey, an unmissable spot for a break in the middle of the forest

The Abbey of Notre-Dame and Saint-Jean-Baptiste of Saint-Jean-aux-Bois is located in the heart of the Compiègne forest, in the village of Saint-Jean-aux-Bois, in the Oise. It was founded in 1152 as an abbey of Benedictine nuns by Queen Adelaide of Savoy (widow of Louis VI). In 1220, the abbey was given a new Gothic-style church. The abbey church was transformed into a parish church in the 18th century. https://www.compiegne-pierrefonds.fr/sit/abbaye-forteresse-de-saint-jean-aux-bois/#:~:text=%C3%80%20propos,%C3%A9glise%20de%20style%20gothique https://www.eglisesdeloise.com/monument/saint-jean-aux-bois-abbaye-notre-dame-et-saint-jean-baptiste/

Beautiful little village nestled in the heart of the forest. The inn at La Bonne Idée is a great place to eat and stay; I have never been disappointed, I recommend it.

While strolling along the Canal de l'Ourcq, you will pass by the Marolles lock with an interesting view of the canal, the lock, an island, the church and the castle. https://aufildelourcq.org/index.php https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marolles_(Oise)

Along the towpath, the view opens up for a moment onto the church of Mareuil-sur-Ourcq which stands on the other side of the canal. This Gothic-style building was built in three stages starting in the 13th century.

Magnificent lock on the Ourcq canal at the eponymous village. It is surrounded by a beautiful green setting which gives it even more charm.

We arrive by the towpath along the canal, then we see the church of Mareuil... Very bucolic.
