The charm of Nogent le Roi.

The Moulin de Mormoulins is a watermill located on the Eure River in the hamlet of Mormoulins. This mill dates back to the 18th and 19th centuries and is a listed historical monument. You can admire the old stone building, the wooden wheel, and the canal that diverts water from the river as you pass in front of the mill. The mill is surrounded by green fields and trees, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.

There were once two parishes in Maintenon: "St. Nicholas," a parish serving the castle and its dependent houses. The church of St. Nicholas, adjoining the castle, now deconsecrated, still stands on Maintenon's main square. "St. Peter," a parish covered by the surveys in this table, is a current parish in the commune. In addition, there was a priory, founded in 1220 under the name of the Priory of Our Lady of Maintenon. The church of Saint-Pierre in Maintenon is mentioned at the beginning of the 12th century, but nothing appears to have survived from this period. Indeed, the Count of Montgomery, a Huguenot, passed through Maintenon in 1567 and ruined the church. In 1692, Madame de Maintenon rebuilt the church of Saint-Pierre, which had fallen into ruin and had become too small for a population that had grown from 700 to 1,100 with the arrival of labor for the construction of the aqueduct. However, there is no evidence that the new church was built on the site of the old one. The foundation stone of the new church of Saint-Pierre was laid on June 4, 1692, by the Vicar General. The blessing took place on July 17, 1694. Bishop Godet des Marais subsequently consecrated the building. In 1736, the large "Henriette" bell was blessed by Mr. Jean François DEREYROLES, parish priest, in the presence of "the Most High and Most Powerful Lord, Monsignor Jean Paul François de NOAILLES, Count of AYEN" and by "the Most High and Most Powerful Lady, Madame Henriette Louise DAGUESSEAU de FRESNE, Countess of AYEN." From 1805 to 1813, Duke Jean-Paul de NOAILLES and his wife refurnished and decorated the Saint-Pierre church (the woodwork, credenzas, and pews were redone). The church's embellishment continued until 1899. The church's architecture is unremarkable. However, it is listed as one of the few Baroque churches in the department. The choir is flanked on one side by a sacristy and on the other by a room called "the vault." This is because, until the 1990s, it contained the bodies of some members of the Noailles family, who were buried there in stacked boxes that are still visible, but disused. The organ, installed in the gallery, is no longer in use. It had been partially dismantled for a renovation that proved too expensive, and some of the pipes were stolen. During the 1939-1945 war, almost all of the old stained-glass windows were destroyed and replaced with modern ones, the work of a master glassmaker from the region: Victor Cot-Dezan.

According to tradition, the church choir covers the remains of an older building, possibly dating back to the 6th century, which was built to house the saint's body. According to current knowledge, the commune of Saint-Piat (Sanctus Piatus in Latin) officially appeared in 1087, mentioned in a charter of the Nottonville Priory (Eure-et-Loir), on which it depended. The current building was rebuilt during the time of Francis I, as suggested by the date 1535 engraved on two buttresses of the apse and the date 1542 engraved on a piece of wood from the vault. This is according to a study by the SAEL (Eure-et-Loir Archaeological Society). The three-sided apses, the dripstone towers (horizontal members projecting from a wall), and the sculpted roof structures are a testament to the importance of the reconstructions carried out in the department during the 16th century. The church of Saint-Piat is one of them. While the church has not been officially recognized, it nevertheless contains objects that have attracted attention both for their antiquity and quality, but not always for good reason. Their artistic value, far from attracting only religious or aesthetic interest, has also aroused a covetousness that, unfortunately, remains for some of them. Fortunately, those still in place are carefully cared for and offer the curious a story to discover, a beauty to slowly ponder as they progress toward the choir.

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.
