The Notre-Dame-et-Saint-Loup collegiate church: was built to be the place of worship for the chapter of nine canons founded in 1195 by the archbishop of Sens. It was built from the 12th to the 16th century and placed under the dual names of Notre-Dame and Saint Wolf. The Notre-Dame-et-Saint-Loup collegiate church contains, hanging in the fifth bay of the nave, a sword which according to tradition would have belonged to John the Fearless (it actually dates from the time of Louis XIV). At the point of the confluence, between the Seine bridge and the Yonne bridge, you can admire this magnificent statue which illustrates the last victory of the Emperor on February 18, 1814 when Napoleon with 80,000 men won the Victory out of 400,000. allies. Saint-Martin Priory Located on the Surville hill above the town, it was founded in 908 by the Benedictines of Saint-Lomer de Blois. It has undergone numerous architectural modifications over the centuries. It became a farm which was abandoned in the 1960s. Excavations were undertaken and revealed remains from the 11th and 13th centuries in the old chapel, in particular sarcophagi, some of which were reused in the foothills.

Nangis is mentioned in 1157 in a bull from Pope Adrian IV under the name Nangiacus. Nant is a Gallic name meaning “valley”, Nangis dominates two valleys. In the Middle Ages, two strongholds, which could compete, shared the land of Nangis-en-Brie: the Châtel/Chastel de Nangis, and the Motte de Beauvoir or Beauvais (this second castle is the origin of the Town Hall, right in the center, close to the church; curiously, there is also Beauvoir about ten km to the NW). La Motte-Beauvais eventually won, and its power was dominant, shaping the development of the city. Works dealing with the issue often mix these two lordships. In 1507, the lordship of Beauvais-Nangis fell to the Brichanteau family through the marriage of Louis de Brichanteau with Marie de Veres, lady of Nangis (which she had inherited from her father Jean de Veres d'Amilly. In November 1612, Admiral Antoine de Brichanteau obtained letters relating to the union and erection of his lands into a marquisate, under the name of Marquisate of Nangis. For the stronghold of Châtel, we find an entire family known as Chastel/Châtel-lez-Nangis until 1471, followed by the Louviers who acquired it in stages from 1457 to 1476 and even beyond. Thus, Charles Louvier(s), lord of Chastelet, was lord of Châtel-Nangis, advisor to the Parliament of Paris, owner in Paris of Île-Louviers; he was the son of Nicolas Louvier, alderman of Paris, provost of merchants, ennobled by letters patent of Louis XI. The Raguiers inherited the fief (Antoine II Raguier, † 1532, marrying Jeanne de Louviers in 1506; Posterity, with possession of the Châtel de Nangis until the end of the 17th century); finally the Brichanteaus acquired this land to unite all of Nangis. Nangis was established as a town in 1544 by François I.

Behind the town hall there is a small park, an oasis of calm in the busy city center.

Gabriel Leroy (1834-1908) was a scholar from Melun, notably the author of the “History of Melun” (1887). A monument was erected in his honor in the garden of the town hall. The base in the form of an ancient column is reminiscent of the Gallo-Roman origins of the city. The work was created by the Melun sculptor Emile Gaulard and Canat-Nolin and inaugurated on October 24, 1909. Only the base remains, the bronze was stolen in 1943.

The fountain "La Fontaine Saint-Jean" was built in 1864 thanks to donations from Henri Lainville. The design comes from Baptiste Klagmann, a sculptor and goldsmith.

From the bridge you have a beautiful view of the Seine and there are various photo opportunities.

Very cozy little square with many cafes and restaurants. However, it should be summer, as a lot of things are only open to a limited extent in winter.
