Centuries ago, our ancestors discovered how to harness the power of the elements – which, while helpful and useful, could also be a threat as untamed natural forces – for various purposes, thus eliminating the need for human or animal muscle power. A good example of the engineering skills of earlier generations are mills like these: the heavy millstones, used for grinding grain or pressing oil, could be powered by wind or – as in this case – water.

Located a few steps from a bend in the Grand Morin, the Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption, in the former hamlet of La Chapelle-sur-Crécy, is reputed to be the second most beautiful church in Brie. Just after the imposing Saint-Etienne Cathedral in Meaux Built in the 13th century, it has unique architectural elements such as an apse vault composed of 12 branches that gives a lot of lightness to the interior of the building. With a total height of 19m under the keystone, the walls of the building have three successive rows of windows and stained glass windows, giving the interior of the building an incomparable luminosity. Located on the edge of the old Nationale 34, the royal road, the Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption still dominates the valley of the Grand Morin and the small washhouse of the Vaudessard stream. Rarely open to the public, even if its interior remains visible, it occasionally serves as a concert hall.

Collegiate Notre Dame de Crecy-la-Chapelle has been a historical monument since 1846. This sumptuous building, in the Gothic style, was built in the 13th century.

The castle of La Houssaye-en-Brie was built towards the end of the 13th century. However, only two towers remain from this period, while the keep dates from the 15th century. Abandoned for several centuries, the building was restored and the walls that separated the village from the castle were demolished. The gardens are therefore open to the public. La Houssaye-en-Brie also has a very beautiful church.
