THE OLIVE ISLAND

Natural site to discover
5/5
1 review

Claude-Joseph Vernet (1764) will illustrate this view of Nogent-sur-Seine with the church Saint-Laurent, the fishermen holding their nets, and a young girl wearing his clothes in the landscape.

It was then called Collet Island or Île des Grands Locks, with as a sine qua non the absence of commerce, sale, cabin cabin… Today as yesterday, this nature is the ideal place for a romantic and romantic walk, especially as the setting up of a mobile bridge. The alleys of the park were traced and gravel, and the island as a whole, with three hectares, was remodeled thanks to a pruning of trees. An arboretum welcomes you and accompanies you with twenty panels that describe the different local species.

Since March 2017 and the creation of the Camille Claudel Museum, Nogent-sur-Seine is a coveted city. The hostesses of the tourist office know this, and advise visitors with knowledge of the facts. Many activities are offered at wise prices depending on the length of your stay: from the nuclear power station to visit (from 26.70 € and on conditions) to a day that combines castle life and pictorial escape at the Claudel Museum (from 37.90 €), it is wise to book your lodging.
