タルチエのおすすめツーリングルート

Located in the Aisne region, Septmonts Castle was originally the country residence of the bishops of Soissons. Built between the 12th and 16th centuries, it retains several original features, such as the so-called Saint-Louis Room. Visitors can discover a 14th-century keep and square tower, as well as a 16th-century Renaissance pavilion. Bombed during the First World War, Septmonts Castle is now classified as a historical monument for its chapel and keep, and an inscription for the rest of the buildings. The impressive keep is over forty meters high and consists of seven stories of complex architecture. Septmonts Castle itself is adorned with a park featuring an arboretum and an orchard. The entire complex is open to the public, and the Renaissance residence also hosts temporary exhibitions. Every June, the site hosts the Pic'Arts rock festival concerts.

For the Jardins en Scène festival, held in September 2019 in Hauts-de-France, the city of Soissons invited Lyon-based artist Kalouf. The graffiti artist created a piece on one of the walls of the former brewery near Parc St. Crépin. A work that will remain "as long as it lives."

Pedestrian and cyclist bridge over the Aisne River. The name, "Passerelle des Anglais," refers to the important role the British played in the liberation of Soissons in 1918 and in the reconstruction of the city after the First World War, including the reconstruction of the original bridge, which was destroyed by the German army.
