While a bit out of the way, if you have some time to kill, Villa Savoye is a pleasant stop. It highlights several of LeCorbusier's modernist principles and offers today's visitor an interesting juxtaposition of 1930s and avant-garde architecture. It's a home that may not suit today's lifestyle, but it's fascinating to look forward from the past and consider which aspects have taken root in today's world.

Chateau de St-Germain

Reviewed By sydneysider48 - Sydney, Australia

Now an archaeological museum, this is a magnificent building, currently nearing the end of a ten year restoration program.
The building dominates the landscape opposite and as you emerge from the RER station and is surrounded by the town and marvellous Gardens designed by Le Notre - regrettably only remnants remain.
The building seems unusual for the period of its construction in that it is a delightful mixture of warmly coloured stone and contrasting red brick, rather than the usual plain stone. The newly restored external section is simply spectacular, particularly the delicate stone carving.
Internally, although now cleverly and sympathetically used as a museum, the grandeur of the building and its decoration is still very evident, particularly in the chapel, courtyard and the magnificent great hall with its amazing fireplace. Even if you are not interested in the exhibits, its is well worth a visit to admire the interiors of the building.

Les Batisseurs en herbe

Reviewed By Nina111286

Quel beau concept et tellement bien pensé ! Je suis venue avec mon fils de trois ans, c’est un lieu convivial, la restauration est bonne et adaptée, les toilettes sont propres et adaptés également pour les petits. Il y a des jeux de constructions pour tous les âges, pour les tous petits comme les grands. Les parents redeviennent des enfants en s’amusant et ça procure beaucoup de bien ! L’accueil est chaleureux et le lieu agréable, propre et bien chauffé. Nous y retournerons très bientôt c’est sûr ! Merci pour ce moment :-)

Dumas is simply my favourite author and I highly recommend visiting his residence to any fan. Unfortunately it was the winter months and the Gardens werent in bloom, but to see where some of your favourite books were penned is a once in a lifetime experience

L'Aventure Automobile a Poissy – CAAPY

Reviewed By JeanFred78 - Poissy, France

Quelques beaux véhicules bien présentés, un peu de nostalgie. Ce petit musée vaut le détour. Dommage qu'ils soit si mal indiqué sur la route, il faut vraiment le chercher. Heureusement, on se doute qu'il est sur le site de Peugeot, ce qui donne un bon repère.

Le Chateau de Marly

Reviewed By stism - Grenoble, France

This park is convenient for a short hike close to Paris. Once a fabulous "small" palace for the king , with a high artificial water stream . Everything has been put to ground. No ruins have been left. Even the famous horse statues facing Paris are fake, the original ones are exhibited in Le Louvre museum. Take note that the park entrance is free, contrary to Versailles palace Gardens
