Monument Notre-Dame de la Marne - Barcy

Highlight • Other

After the 1st battle of the Marne, Monsignor Marbeau, Bishop of Meaux, made a wish that the town of Meaux would be spared and decided to build a commemorative monument at the very place where the German advance was stopped.

This religious and patriotic monument was inaugurated in 1924 and the site was the subject of numerous pilgrimages to celebrate the "Miracle of the Marne".

The building is made of granite and cast iron and represents the Virgin Mary with the inscription "You will not go further".

Villemareuil Oil Well

Coulommes Oil Pump Jack

Highlight • Monument

There is oil in France! In fact, 64 oil and gas deposits are currently in operation, mainly in the Aquitaine Basin and in the Paris Basin. Annual French production amounts to 0.8 million tonnes of oil, which represents 1% of the country's consumption.
Production in Brie dates back to the 1950s, when France aimed for oil self-sufficiency and began a series of major research programs in Seine-et-Marne. The first oil discovery was made here on February 22, 1958, at a depth of 1,875 m in the basement of the village of Coulommes. This deposit has produced around two million tonnes of oil, but of the fifty-seven wells drilled since 1958 on the concession, only four are still active.
This derrick was installed here by the municipality of Coulommes to commemorate this event.
Following the fluctuations in the price of black gold, the oil companies plan to resume exploration and the re-exploitation of the deposits of Seine et Marne.
