Yes, indeed pretty Patelin :-)

Stop at the edge of town to admire the view

This door, which appears medieval, does not go unnoticed with its two towers and the battlements of its curtain wall. Make no mistake, it was built in 1928 on the initiative of Mrs. Belmont, an American national, then owner of the Augerville castle. This gate now belongs to the commune of Boulancourt.

Very beautiful village which is definitely worth the detour. You can notably discover its castle, built in the 13th century under Philippe Auguste. Don't hesitate to dismount and take a walk in the pedestrian part of the village.

The Château de Courcelles-le-Roi is discreet behind its high walls and hedges, and yet it has left its mark on the history of France, welcoming within its walls some of the most illustrious kings. A former fortified castle whose construction dates back to the 11th century, it was destroyed and rebuilt three times, including twice during the Hundred Years' War. Located on the lands of the Orléans forest where the kings came to hunt, Saint-Louis and Charles VIII stayed there. Anne of Brittany, Queen of France and wife of Charles VIII, gave birth there to a baby, François, who unfortunately only lived a few hours. Guided tours are organized there.

Superb little place that I discovered recently.

Behind a door, pretty little wash house.

The Manoir de la Taille, also known as the Château de Bondaroy, is a fortified manor house which dates from the 14th century and was the birthplace of two Renaissance poets, Jean and Jacques de La Taille. You can admire the impressive facade, towers and gatehouse, as well as the surrounding countryside. You can also explore the neighboring town of Pithiviers, which has a rich heritage and a famous pastry, the pithivier.
