In a small parking lot near Estaimbourg Church, you'll find several pieces of street art, the most striking of which is the long mural "Vive le Sport" (Long Live Sport). It's painted on the wall that separates the parking lot from the soccer field behind it and the adjacent sports facility. Street art is also displayed on the right wall of the parking lot.

Today, the Camille Depinoy municipal school is partly housed in the castle (park).

The lordship of Templeuve is already mentioned at the end of the 13th century. In 1278, Guillaume de Mortagne received the lordship of Rumez, which is now a hamlet within the municipality. Guillaume was also lord of Dossemer, near Templeuve. It is assumed that he also received the lordship of Templeuve from there. In any case, his son, Guillaume II, gave it to his wife as a dowry in the early 14th century. Dossemer and Templeuve remained in the hands of the Mortagne family until the end of the 14th century. This family presumably gradually expanded the manor, thus laying the foundation for the first fortified castle in Templeuve-en-Dossimer. In 1414, only Templeuve came into the possession of the du Quesnoy family. The Blondel and finally the Lannoy families followed. Around 1500, the castle likely became a manor house and a farm. The evolution of military weapons led the lords to demolish the old, cumbersome fortress and replace it with a lavish and modern residence. Out of respect for feudal traditions, which would continue for another two centuries, the moat was preserved, but the drawbridge was replaced by a permanent stone bridge. Originally, moats ran along all sides of the castle. The moat surrounding the castle on the east side was removed in 1845 by Victor de Formanoir de la Cazerie. The towers, a privilege of the noble lord, are preserved more as decoration than as a means of defense, as is the quadrangular shape, which was once dictated by military necessity. In short, its appearance as a 'castle' or 'fort' is more defined by tradition and grandeur than by military function. Source: Wikipedia

From the early 1970s, the development of the new town in this area took shape with the construction of the Heron Park and the Heron Lake. The former hunting lodge was converted into a house divided into two rental apartments. In 1973, the building was acquired by the Public Institution for the Development of the New Town of Lille-East. In December 1982, the building, which had suffered damage since the expropriation, was returned to the municipality of Villeneuve d'Ascq. At the end of 1983, the municipality decided to have the building completely restored by the Compagnons du Devoir (a French craft guild) as part of a training program.

Great spot for slaloming on footbridges and paths with a little relief. Watch out for pedestrians.

Friendly side

small hill in the woods, very treacherous with a bit of %

There are some decent MTB trail sections in this location. Quite narrow single track. You have to watch out for the exposed tree roots, there are plenty along these tracks. Fun to ride on and off road sections.
