A special place, assembling a collection of objects associated with the famous French composer in the house where he was born: Claude Debussy's birthplace is located in the historic quarter of Saint-Germain-en-Laye. It was in this 17-century house in the town that Claude Debussy was born, on 22 August 1862, and spent his early childhood. His father ran a china shop on the ground floor. After the composer's death in 1918, it soon became the main gathering place of his many admirers. Once inside, you will discover a wonderful little inner courtyard, where a splendid wooden staircase will lead you up to the museum. The museum, officially recognised as a 'Maison des illustres' ('Houses of the Famous'), displays objects and photographs that help provide a better understanding of the composer's creative process.

At the time of the first scandals, Durand-Ruel and some amateurs give him a decisive support by buying him paintings. Alphonse Fournaise is one of the first! He ordered his portrait and that of his daughter for 200 francs. For more than ten years, Renoir made frequent stays at home and around Chatou where he painted about thirty paintings. Aged nearly forty, he began the ambitious Breakfast of the Boaters. This painting, painted on the balcony of the Maison Fournaise, is the result of long research. The painter feels then that he has arrived "at the end of impressionism". This great admirer of the masters of the Italian Renaissance dreams of making this work a bridge between Veronese, Raphael and the modern life of his century. Retained at the Fournaise by his painting in 1880, he wrote to Monsieur de Bellio: "You will not regret your trip. It is the most beautiful place around Paris.

The Grand Trianon was designed in 1687 by Jules Hardouin-Mansart to allow King Louis XIV to escape the excessive luxury of the Court and to safeguard his love affairs there. The site indeed exudes a sense of intimacy and refinement. The palace is inspired by Italian architecture and invites you to poetry and leisurely strolls. It was built on the site of Louis XIV’s former Porcelain Trianon. A little fun fact: in the past, the Grand Trianon was surrounded by thousands of potted flowers, which were changed every day. Today, this tradition is still maintained with each season. The spectacle was truly unique: flowerbeds bursting with blooms of every color and a wide variety of fragrances filled the air. Later on, the Grand Trianon was frequented by Napoleon Bonaparte and by Presidents of the Republic. From 1962 to 1966, General de Gaulle entrusted André Malraux, then Minister of Cultural Affairs, with the restoration of the Grand Trianon.

The Petit Trianon was built between 1763 and 1768 by the architect Gabriel, requested by Madame de Pompadour, mistress then friend of king Louis XV. Madame de Pompadour, who wished to “relieve the king’s boredom” — though no longer his mistress, she remained his friend — was the instigator of this small château, built by architect Gabriel between 1763 and 1768. It was erected near the Botanical Garden and the new menagerie, as Louis XV had a keen interest in the sciences. To please the marquise, always at the forefront of fashion, the king’s architect broke away from the rococo aesthetic and adopted a cubic form with very pure lines, in keeping with the brand-new “Greek style” then in vogue. Its simplicity is only apparent, for each façade is different, designed in relation to the space it overlooks: the courtyard, the French Garden with its elegant pavilion, the Botanical Garden, and the Florist’s Garden. Inside, one finds the same modernity of style. Simpler than the rest of the estate, the decoration of the Petit Trianon lies not in lavish materials — gilding is almost absent — but in the refinement of its sculptures, in a château entirely dedicated to nature. Madame de Pompadour died in 1764 and never saw the château completed. Today, it is above all the memory of Marie-Antoinette that it evokes. In 1774, Louis XVI gave the Trianon estate to his wife, who was able to live here a life apart — too much so for some — from the Court.

By exploring the Hall of Mirrors, the King’s State Apartments, and the Museum of the History of France, you step into a palace that, until 1789, was the heart of royal power and continued to evolve over the centuries. Originally, Versailles was nothing more than a hunting lodge built by Louis XIII. But it was here that Louis XIV chose to construct the majestic palace we know today, a symbol of absolute monarchy and French classical art. In the 1670s, Louis XIV commissioned the construction of the King’s and Queen’s State Apartments. The most emblematic creation of these ceremonial spaces is undoubtedly the Hall of Mirrors, designed by Mansart. During the following century, the palace kept expanding, with major works such as the Royal Chapel and the Opera. Today, the Palace covers 63,154 m², spread across 2,300 rooms. Although the Palace lost its role as the seat of power in 1789, in the 19th century it was given a new purpose: to become the Museum of the History of France, an idea launched by Louis-Philippe, who ascended the throne in 1830. Many rooms of the palace were then transformed to house collections recounting the great moments of French history, enriched until the early 20th century.

The Château de Gaillon is considered to be the first Renaissance château in the Seine valley. Built between 1498 and 1510, it is the most remarkable example of the combination of Gothic and Italian Renaissance architecture. The chateau was made famous by the Cardinal Georges d'Amboise, a forerunner of the development of Italian Renaissance in France. It would be dismantled during the French Revolution.

In a natural environment on the banks of the river Seine, make the most of the peace and quiet to watch birds, amphibians and insects. Along the bank of the river Seine, the fluvial terraces in Courcelles Bouafles are listed a Sensitive Natural area. These flat areas shaped by the river during the ice age have been largely remodelled by the quarry workers in the last century for the extraction of stones. Nowadays they hold a diversity of dry and wet habitats which are rich in biodiversity. You can walk around this natural area by following the "Sentier des Rossignols" (Nightingales' Path) to observe an exceptional array of fauna and flora. Education panels and tools will help you observe and recognize numerous bird species that gather in these two bodies of water. As dusk falls, you might hear the peculiar call of the Eurasian stone curlew. This funny bird looking surprised with long yellow legs is threatened by the urbanisation of the fluvial terraces where it builds its nest on unobstructed grounds to be able to spot intruders. The protection of these natural habitats contributes to its conservation.

Why and how to protect these habitats? Follow the "Sentier du Criquet" (Grasshopper Path) along 1.7 km (0.6 miles) and discover the fauna and flora of this Sensitive Natural Area! Look up and you will see the cliffs of the river Seine in the background that tower over these fluvial terraces. The white limestone outcrops, topped by the medieval fortress of Château-Gaillard, can be seen from afar.

Did you know that Henri IV fought here on March 14, 1590 at the Battle of Ivry? The obelisk bears witness to this epoch-making event in French history. The obelisk stands at the foot of the pear tree where the "Vert Galant" fell asleep after winning the battle. It was Napoleon Bonaparte, visiting the battle site in 1802, who ordered the rebuilding of the monument known locally as the pyramid. On October 24, 1804, the foundation stone for today's obelisk was laid. After a speech by the Prefect of Eure, and in the presence of the mayors of the neighboring communes, a box filled with coal powder was placed in the foundations, containing a copper plaque depicting the destruction of the original monument and its restoration. To this day, the monument stands proud, surrounded by rows of majestic trees: 25 lime trees in the circular section and 52 in equal numbers on either side of the driveway leading to the monument. The obelisk was not spared by the violent storm of December 26, 1999, when it collapsed. It was restored and raised in 2000.

Objects and documents of the time spread over 1,000 m² recount the history of the Second World War. This private museum displays a collection built by the owner over 40 years.
