Discover Val-D'Oise : Architecture (and design)
The Val Parisis conurbation may not have a specific style, but there's no shortage of architectural marvels! In this issue, you'll discover just how many castles the region is home to: they're diverse, their uses varied (which explains why, in most cases, they can't be visited) and all bear witness to the past. Another type of heritage is religious: numerous churches, some of them listed, ranging from massive village edifices to Gothic marvels, are all points of interest. Although this dossier does not deal directly with the Fort de Cormeilles, which is mentioned on several other occasions in this guide, we will keep this unique built heritage in mind. Last but not least, we'll be talking about individual and atypical houses, as well as remarkable contemporary creations. As you'll see, there's plenty to admire here!
