Dovecote of the "maladerie de Comtesse", the only remnant of the old town, used to house leprosy patients.
The dovecote is the only vestige of a "maladrerie" (or sickhouse) built on the outskirts of the old town to care for lepers. Comprising a hospital, guesthouse and cemetery, it was established in the 12th century by the Countess of Meulan, Agnès de Montfort. Damaged during the Hundred Years' War, it was transferred to the Hôtel-Dieu de Meulan by Louis XIV. The last buildings, in ruins, were demolished in 1982, with the exception of the dovecote, which was restored.
