Château de Maillebois

Highlight • Castle

A “Renaissance” castle entirely made of bricks, where one of the favorites of the court of Henry III, Minister of Finance in exile, and above all an aviation pioneer lived: Hubert Latham landed here in August 1910.
Although defenses were present on the site as early as 1383, the construction of the brick castle that we see today by Jean d'O, with its six towers and its chapel, dates back to around 1460. Guided tour of the castle and of the site is available. Adult prices start from 5 euros, the area is open in summer.

Saint Peter's Church, Blévy

Highlight • Other

Its construction undoubtedly dates back to the Romanesque period but as it
appears today it presents the characteristics of the Gothic style
flamboyant period in which it was rebuilt after the destruction caused
by the 100 Years' War. The date of March 23, 1511 inscribed on the entrance which
surmounts the entrance to the choir gives a valuable clue to the period of its
renovation. Another testimony is the coat of arms of Charles d’Ô Seigneur de Blévy and
partly by Louise Gentil married in 1507
appearing on a stained glass window in the choir. The style of the tower
porch, slopes of the gable of the nave and
tracery of the windows clearly shows that
we are in the presence of a building constructed
in the first quarter of the 16th century
at the twilight of the flamboyant Gothic style.

Survivor of the destruction of the fortress in 1591, the castle chapel became a parish church. It was an important regional pilgrimage (Notre-Dame-du-Pasme chapel). This very widespread cult in Italy was developed in Thymerais by a lord of Châteauneuf from the branch of the Princes of Mantua.

The old bell tower built on the central nave was replaced in 1864 by the current one, which was damaged by the bombings of 1940 and restored in 1952. It houses two bells, one baptized in 1809 (Jeanne Françoise) and the other in 1825 (Caroline).

Rond des Quatres Barrières

Highlight • Monument

The Rond des Quatres Barrières is a historical monument dating from the 18th century. It was built by the Duke of Penthièvre, who owned the neighboring castle of Châteauneuf-En-Thymerais. The Rond des Quatres Barrières is made up of four stone arches that form a circle, with a fountain in the center. It is located in the middle of the forest. The Rond des Quatres Barrières is a peaceful and charming place to visit, especially in the spring or fall when the trees are in bloom or changing color.

Its history is closely linked to the lords of Châteauneuf-en-Thymerais. One of them, Hughes I, founded the Royal Abbey of Saint-Vincent-aux-Bois there, which existed until the Revolution.
