As if it were the Baie de Somme... Its 241 hectares, 60% of which are covered by water, offer visitors a patchwork of amazing landscapes located in the immediate vicinity of the Marne: ponds, reed beds, meadows and groves provide shelter and food for more than 225 species of birds, some of which are endangered in the region, and which are undoubtedly the most remarkable wealth of the reserve ... Exceptional for the fauna and flora it shelters, it is part of the Natura 2000 site "Les Boucles de la Marne". Not so long ago, the Grand-Voyeux Regional Nature Reserve was still a quarry, where conveyors extracted sand and gravel with a crunch of grains. Excavated in the 1970s, the cavities were gradually transformed into waterholes, quickly colonised by reeds and birds, thus allowing nature to take over. The Maison du Grand-Voyeux is open to the public two days a week, with the aim of helping visitors discover the Grand-Voyeux while preserving biodiversity and the balance of the ecosystems. A discovery trail and observatories allow visitors to discover the incredible landscapes of the site and the multitude of bird species that have found refuge there. Nature activities, workshops and thematic conferences are also organised regularly and free of charge (see programme online at www.maisondugrandvoyeux.fr). Managed by the Agence des espaces verts (AEV) of the Île-de-France Region since 1999, it was classified as a Regional Nature Reserve in 2012. A partner of the AEV, the Association pour la Valorisation des Espaces Naturels du Grand Voyeux is responsible for the scientific monitoring of the site and for certain activities.

During the Battle of the Marne, this residence, owned by industrialist Eugène Boch, a patron of the arts and friend of many painters, served as a command post for several French generals. Villa "La Grimpette" was the home of painter and poet Eugène Boch, from a wealthy family of faience manufacturers. It housed the command post of General de Lamaze, commander of the 5th Group of French Reserve Divisions. From the upper balcony, the plains from Saint-Soupplets to Penchard could be seen through binoculars. General Gallieni visited the villa on 7 September 1914. He left in the afternoon to supervise the French attack on the flanks of the German army.

Officially inaugurated on 5 September 2004, the museum's collection brings together numerous objects discovered in recent years during excavations on various French battlefields: weapons, helmets, bowls, bottles... The museum also houses documentation on the Great War, including books, magazines, posters, postcards and photos, as well as a scale model of the battlefield with figurines. In 2004, following the 90th anniversary ceremonies and the many historic marches accompanied by 12 Moroccan officers, a replica of a complete Moroccan rifleman's uniform was donated by the Royal Moroccan Armed Forces. Another mannequin represents Charles Péguy, in his 276th Infantry Regiment Lieutenant uniform. The military canteen bearing his name was kindly donated by the Péguy family. On 6 September 2009, Michel Péguy, Charles Péguy's grandson, presented the museum with the kepi and epaulettes from Lieutenant Péguy's ceremonial uniform. The Musée 14-18 de Villeroy is a 5th category public establishment with a capacity of 19 people. The museum publishes books, which can be found on the website.

On 5 September 1914, only a few hours after the first Battle of the Marne started, poet and writer Charles Péguy was struck in the head by a bullet as he gallantly led his men in an attack on German positions. At around 4.30pm, in scorching heat, the 276th Infantry Regiment to which he belonged set off towards the Monthyon hillock, to cover the retreat of Moroccan riflemen who were fighting against the Germans. Out in the open, in a field that offered no shelter whatsoever, the men fell one after the other under German machine-gun fire. This memorial stone pays tribute to this monument to French literature, who fell on the field of honour in the first moments of the battle. At the base of the cross, some verses remind us of the work of this great author and his patriotic sentiments. "Blessed are those who died for carnal earth. Provided it was in a just war. Blessed are those who died for four corners of earth. Blessed are those who died a solemn death. Blessed are those who died in great battles. Stretched out on the ground in the face of God. Blessed are those who died for their hearth and fire, And the lowly honours of their fathers' houses. Blessed are those who died, for they have returned Into primeval clay and primeval earth. Blessed are those who died in a just war. Blessed is the wheat that is ripe and the wheat that is gathered in sheaves." Charles Péguy – Eve (1913) – Extracts

On 5 September 1914, the Germans were at the gates of Paris and fighting was raging in the countryside around Meaux. It was on the plain between Chauconin Neufmontiers and Villeroy that Lieutenant Charles Péguy led his men to the rescue of their Moroccan comrades who were fighting the Germans a short distance away. The fighting was fierce and many men were killed. Today, many of them are buried in the "Grande Tombe" (Great Tomb), not far from where they fell. After the war, the bodies were not repatriated to the military cemeteries. The Great Tomb is thus one of the last mass graves in France, where soldiers and officers are buried.

This historical landmark was the theater of violent battles between 6 and 9 September 1914. This important position, which had been taken by German general Von Kluck – who had installed his general staff there – had to be reconquered. After the First Battle of the Marne, Monseigneur Marbeau, bishop of Meaux, expressed his wish that the town of Meaux be spared and decided to build a commemorative monument on the very spot where the German advance was halted. This religious and patriotic monument was inaugurated in 1924 and was the site of numerous pilgrimages to celebrate the "Miracle of the Marne". The granite and cast-iron building depicts the Virgin Mary with the inscription "Thou shalt go no further".

The sensitve natural area of the hill of Montassis, with a surface area of ​​46 hectares, culminates at 164 m and dominates the country of France to the south and the Multien plateau to the north. The site is part of a set of witness mounds*, called the Goële hills, which form a striking axis in the landscape of the North of Seine-et-Marne. Like most nearby hills, the Montassis hill has only been fully wooded for a relatively recent past. At the beginning of the 20th century, its southern and western flanks were planted with vines and orchards. Its strategic location quickly gives it importance to communicate or observe the surroundings. In the first half of the 19th century, the high point of the hill was equipped with a Chappe telegraph, named after its inventor. With a long distance communication mechanism, this is the quickest way to transmit messages. The wood of the telegraph, as it is still called today, no longer has any traces: the telegraph has been replaced by a geodesic chimney built by the Geographical Service of the army (SGA), ancestor of the Institute national geographic (IGN). At the beginning of the 20th century, it enabled cartographers to carry out precise surveys for the establishment of staff maps. It was this same strategic position that made the hill the scene of a bloody episode at the start of the First World War. On September 5, 1914, a brigade of Moroccan troops attempted to take the hill held by the German army. The assault, in the open, was terrible and the brigade suffered heavy losses before being supported by French troops from the west. The German troops end up turning back. These battles will forever be associated with the first battle of the Marne, which prevented the capture of Paris. The wood subsoil, rich in gypsum *, was exploited from 1971 to 1986, mainly towards Penchard. Apart from some marked depressions, resulting from the obstruction of the galleries by caving *, this underground exploitation has left few visible traces in the perimeter of the ENS. The Municipality of Chauconin-Neufmontiers has long valued this hill which dominates the village, in particular with the opening of a historic circuit and the restoration of part of the paths which cross the wood. In order to strengthen the protection of heritage and the natural environment on the site, the Department decided to classify it as a sensitive natural area in 2007.
