La fondation d'Aligre

Highlight • Other

The Aligre Foundation stands on the site of the former Notre-Dame de Josaphat abbey, founded in 1117 by Geoffroy de Lèves, and his brother Goslein, lord of Lèves. It served as a necropolis for the bishops of Chartres and was notably the burial place of John of Salisbury, who died in 1180.

In 1791, during the Revolution, the abbey was partly demolished and pillaged. After the Revolution, the remains of the abbey became the property of the Aligre family, originally from Chartres and with a considerable fortune.

In 1968, when the agricultural land intended to meet financial needs no longer yielded enough, the Aligre foundation was no longer able to balance its accounts. It was decided by the board of directors to merge with the Marie-Thérèse Hospice and become a departmental public establishment, known since then as the Aligre and Marie-Thérèse Foundation.

Saint-Piat Mill

Highlight • Monument

The Moulin de Saint-Piat is a water mill located on the Eure and dating from the 11th century where it was once used for the production of flour and the extraction of oil. You can admire the architecture of the mill, which was extended in 1865, and enjoy the view of the river and the nearby church. The mill is also a good place for birdwatching, as you may be able to see herons, kingfishers and ducks along the water.

Pont Rouge on the Louis XIV Canal

Highlight • Bridge

Originally, the Red Bridge was built at the end of the 17th century, namely in the years 1685-1686 on the orders of Louis XIV as part of his vast project to build the Maintenon aqueduct entrusted to La Hire and Vauban. The goal of this project was to be able to transport the waters of the Eure from Pontgouin (located west of Maintenon) to the Palace of Versailles. It was from 1684 that studies were carried out by La Hire who discovered that the Eure was approximately 80 feet (27 m) higher than the castle at Pontgouin.
Maintenon was still to this day an intermittent residence of the king's court, and major work was undertaken, such as the digging of the grand canal passing under the aqueduct, the planting of the banks or the drawing of the castle park by Le Nôtre. .

You should know that until 1838, it is by this bridge that the entry into Maintenon was made. The legend attributes its name to the color of the uniform of the soldiers in charge of its guard.

Lavoir de Soulaires

Beautiful, recently renovated washhouse. Its water is supplied by a spring, not the river. It's a great place to take a break.
