Very easy to access from the Gastins exit going towards Chapelle Iger or the opposite... We go around it on foot, which allows us to contemplate it. It is the only mill in France to have preserved this mechanism, which is why it was classified as a Historic Monument (including its mechanism) in 1970. The Choix mill depended in the 13th century on the abbey of Jouy, which built large agricultural operations and in Gastins two windmills, in 1228. Among them is the mill called Chouaix or Choix, from the name of a disappeared hamlet . This mill which has come down to us was then often rebuilt and its current construction dates from the 17th century. It bears two dates on its doors: 1668 on the north door and 1828 on its south door. It is built at an altitude of 132 meters. Its tower is 8 m high and 6 m in diameter. Its rack and pinion wings, built in 1845, are of the Berton type, the first model with rack, mill-tower and pivot with rotating cap. The roof is attached to the wings, made of chestnut wood tiles, called “essentes”, fixed with copper nails. The roof turns on a circle of wood located at the top of the tower. The tail, a large wooden beam, acts as a counterweight to the wings and allows the roof to be moved. He uses two pairs of grindstones from the Ferté-sous-Jouarre region, in the north of Seine-et-Marne, where there are sandstone quarries. It was restored by an association during the 1970s and officially returned to the wind on September 10, 1977. source: https://www.brienangissienne.fr/Le-Moulin-Choix-de-Gastins.html

The Arcy tower (or Saint Firmin tower). Built in 1896 by the actor Léon Noël, it is made up of very diverse elements. The entrance portal is for example that of the Saint-Firmin chapel in Paris (1257). (source https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaumes-en-Brie#Culture_locale_et_patrimoine)

The "Couvée stone", menhir or standing stone, dates from the Neolithic period (age of polished stone: -7000 / -3000). It is a block of Fontainebleau sandstone, two meters high and as wide, stuck in a flood zone of the Yerres valley. This menhir has fixed a legend that is often found for other megaliths. The caption: “Having learned that her sister AUBIERGE was going to build a chapel, GENEVIEVE wanted to participate in the work. She went to the forest of Fontainebleau, chose a beautiful stone that she placed on her back, and took the way back. Near Courtomer, an angel said to him: "It's no longer worth the effort, the chapel is finished". Geneviève dropped the useless burden which was stuck in the ground. Thus was born the brood stone. CLASSIFICATION: the menhir, having escaped various threats of destruction for 50 centuries, has been classified as a Historic Monument since January 5, 1971.
