Many 16th-century kings and their landscape architects strove to make the Domaine National a rare gem featuring some of the most beautiful gardens of Ile-de-France. One of the main features of the Domaine de Saint-Germain is its famous Terrasse, which was designed by Louis XIV's head gardener, André Le Nôtre, and offers a superb view across western Paris. But the Domaine National also incorporates 70 hectares of protected spaces designed during the 16th, 17th and 19th centuries. Henri IV was the main person responsible for enhancing this park by building here, in the 16th century, a succession of six terraces leading down to the Seine, as well as arched galleries and some sumptuous grottoes. Later, during the reign of Louis XIII, the gardens lost their splendour, and it was Louis XIV who commissioned Le Nôtre to create new ones, from 1662 to 1674, giving rise to the famous "parterre de broderie" gardens. As a result, walkers and joggers benefit from the French gardens with suggestive names, such as the Boulingrin, the Grand Parterre and the Jardin de la Dauphine. As for the English garden, this was created in 1845 by the Crown Estate engineer, Loaisel de Tréogate. It was built on a parcel of forestland and features some remarkable trees. Nowadays, the Domaine attracts families, having adapted to become a recreational space with play areas and restaurants which open in the summer season for lunches and snacks.

The Château-Vieux de Saint-Germain has welcomed many kings over the centuries, up to the time of Napoleon III, who turned it into the Musée d'Archéologie nationale that we know today. Come and learn about its history. / A ROYAL RESIDENCE / The imposing Château de Saint-Germain with its elegant Renaissance-style profile is in fact the third of a series that was begun by Louis VI in the 12th century. The first fortress, which became a ruin after the Hundred Years' War, gave way to a second building with a pentagonal shape commissioned by Charles V. It was François I who finally instigated the building of the Renaissance château, which was designed by Pierre Chambiges. François I and the kings that succeeded him stayed here often. Henri II continued the work initiated by his father and began construction of the Château-Neuf, where Louis XIV was born on 5 September 1638. It was Henri IV who finished this building. Overlooking the Seine, it was a real pleasure palace for the king and the court. The king added terraced gardens, which stretched down to the river. The Château-Neuf de Saint-Germain was at that time one of the finest in Europe. Under the reign of Louis XIV, Saint-Germain became the seat of the kingdom's government and the Château-Vieux was the king's main residence from 1666 to 1682, when the court left for Versailles; the layout of the city centre dates from this time. Some important events took place in the château, including the christening of Louis, Grand Dauphin, and the marriage of Mlle de Lois and the Prince de Conti; it was the scene of grand festivities, too: concerts, balls and theatrical performances. The King particularly favoured the worked of Molière and Lully. Towards the end of the 18th century, the Château-Neuf, which was already in a state of disrepair due to a lack of maintenance, was abandoned. Today, only a few remains, including the Rampe des Grottes and the Mur des Lions, recall its former existence. / TODAY'S MUSÉE D'ARCHÉOLOGIE NATIONALE / Napoleon III had the Château-Vieux restored by Eugène Millet, who notably destroyed the corner pavilions that Louis XIV had added. In 1867, the Emperor set up the 'Musée d’antiquités celtiques et gallo-romaines' here. Today, it houses the Musée d'Archéologie nationale. The old rooms of this Renaissance building display some of the finest archeological collections in the world. / THE CHÂTEAU'S COURTYARD AND CHAPEL / It was Louis IX, known as Saint Louis, who, in 1230–38, added a chapel whose style prefigured that of the Sainte-Chapelle de Paris. Many royal christenings and marriages took place here. Later, François I, adding bricks to stone, built the Renaissance château that you can discover today. And it was in the palace chapel that he married Claude of France on 18 May 1514. In the courtyard, a hidden trompe-l'œil presents itself to keen-eyed visitors. See if you can find it! As you enter the Rayonnant Gothic-style chapel, the oldest of the preserved buildings, look up and admire the corners of the rib vaults and their seven ronde-bosse heads, and have some fun seeing if you can spot that of Saint Louis! Free admission except during certain temporary exhibitions.

In a small village above the Epte valley, La Commanderie, a place steeped in history with its 11th-century medieval tower, welcomes you. Opposite it, in a pretty brick and half-timbered house, this gîte is a very pleasant place to spend your vacations. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a contemporary decor featuring wood, club armchairs in the lounge by the fireplace, a comfortable dining area and a top-notch kitchen! You'll love the large pergola just for you, a shady terrace perfect for outdoor meals and siestas in fine weather. Jean-François will tell you all about the history of this place, a former stronghold and later Templar Commandery, and about the Vexin Normand region he knows so well; he'll advise you on the best places to visit. In the village, you'll find local producers, restaurants and a bakery, and in Gisors, 6 km away, you'll find all the services of a small, friendly town. Entrance on the ground floor leads to the living room, with kitchen and dining area on one side, and lounge by the fireplace on the other. Upstairs, 2 small bedrooms and a shower room with toilet. The gîte benefits from a private outdoor space right in front of the gîte, as well as a superb pergola with a summer atmosphere, a large shaded terrace with furniture for your meals and relaxation. There's also a space to share with the small adjoining gîte (sleeps 2) on the motte; croquet lawn and ample parking.

Take a leap back in time to medieval times with an unusual stay at La Commanderie in an 11th-century dwelling. A change of atmosphere in this former stronghold, then Templar Commandery, to which Jean-François has taken it upon himself to breathe new life. If the atmosphere of this exceptional place is still there, you'll find all the modern comforts and wellbeing of a truly warm vacation spot. Here, everything has been thought out down to the smallest detail, which you'll enjoy, always with respect for the place and its carved stones steeped in history: the furniture, the ceramic or forged crockery, the decor, right down to the bathtub, are all homemade and bring a real sense of originality! You'll love dining in the salle d'armes next to a roaring fire, spending the night in the tower with its round bed, or grilling on the brazier. Jean-François will tell you all about this region of the Vexin Normand and guide you to its most beautiful nuggets to visit. Entering from the garden level, the gîte is FULL-FLOOR: a warm, well-equipped kitchen, a living room in the arms room with its original dining area and period-style armchairs, and a cosy living room next to the superb fireplace: comfortable bedding for 2 in the sofa bed. The tower houses the bedroom, with its curves and stone walls, lit by 3 loopholes: large round bed! The bathroom, dressed in wood, is just as original, with its barrel bath, stone washbasin and toilet. On the garden side, you're on the motte féodale, overlooking the village and the small Bonde valley: plenty of space for running around, a croquet lawn, a sheltered dining area with a hanging table; ample parking (not enclosed). There are also 2 small gîtes on the property, which can be used as additional accommodation. In the village, local producers, restaurants and bakery, and in Gisors, 6 km away, all the services of a small, friendly town.
