A large and beautiful square with a church and a café. A town with pretty houses. Quiet, very quiet, but ideal for a mid-trip break!

Very beautiful pretty statues

As you enter Villeneuve-Le-Comte, you will come across the historic Church of Notre-Dame de la Nativité. This impressive Romanesque church, dating back to the 12th century, has a stunning Romanesque façade and a beautifully preserved interior. As you explore the church, you will be captivated by the intricate stone carvings, colorful stained glass windows, and peaceful atmosphere.

This former ruined 13th century castle was extensively renovated in the 20th century. Today it is a reception venue.

Small square serving as a meeting place for many cyclists opposite the church and next to a small fountain

I went back in March 2024 and actually saw, up close, the pantry. As for the huge oak tree... squeak! 😢 Major forestry work nearby.

aint Loup-de-Naud located near Provins, has a Romanesque church from the 11th and 12th centuries, considered one of the most beautiful Romanesque buildings in Île-de-France. It has a barrel-shaped nave and a portal in early Gothic style with a remarkable tympanum depicting Christ in majesty between the symbols of the evangelists. New for the time, statues of saints and prophets adorn the sides of the portal. No document allows us to precisely date the construction of the entire church. The portal would be from the second half of the 12th century (around 1160). The town is the seat of the Benedictine priory of Saint-Loup, the destination of an important pilgrimage in honor of the relics of Saint-Loup, bishop of Sens. The church was completed thanks to donations from Henry the Liberal, Count of Champagne. The priory was ruined by the English in 1432 and by the Protestants in 1567.

Very fun going downhill. Be careful though with reduced visibility.
