Monuments to visit Nogent-Le-Roi

The castle does not visit, but you can enjoy a pleasant stroll in its park, in the shadow of the many centuries-old trees that make it up. On your way you can meet deer, donkeys, peacocks, lower court animals… a playground for children makes it an ideal place for families. As for the castle, it is the site of a fortress built in the th century. In the th century, a castle of feudal type was substituted and destroyed under the French Revolution. A bourgeois house replaces it between 1822 and 1860. Eugene Mesquite made a large house Louis XIII, decorated with Renaissance motifs.

Today, there is not much of the giant wind that took place between 1955 and 1966 on the edge of the RD 148, two kilometres from Nogent, towards La Place: only 5 blocks of concrete frozen in a field. These are the only remnants of a wind turbine designed for E.D.F. in the 1950 s to explore the energy sources of the future. This renewable energy research programme has been abandoned in favour of the massive development of nuclear energy. The whole thing was truly monumental: 3 feet fixed on concrete concrete of 150 tonnes each supported a service platform 16 meters above the ground. There was a column on which the propeller axis was set, 31 metres above the ground.
