Reviewed By emgarb - North Carolina, United States
In this interesting and eclectic shop tucked away in a fascinating historical French town, the owner was fixing up the basement of his store over a period of several years. He made some fascinating discoveries and he tells you the story during the tour. He speaks simply and slowly and if you have a basic knowledge of French you can follow him - if not there are almost always bilingual tourists with you who translate as he speaks. If you want an unusual and long to be remembered experience, stop by Le Cachot!

Dating back to the 15th century, the Chateau de Pierrefonds was comprehensively restored and altered by architect Viollet-le-Duc in the 19th century to transform it into an imperial residence for Napoleon III. The chateaux often seems to have been specially built for a swashbuckling film with its richly varied painted and sculpted decors, its defensive system and drawbridge, walkways and drop-boxes, not to forget the two reconstructions of medieval siege engines.

The most magnificent castle perched atop a hill overlooking the beautiful town and lake of Pierrefonds. It really is like something out of a fairy tale. No wonder there are stories about it inspiring the castle in the Disney logo. Whether that's true or not I don't know, no matter, it just has to be seen - and enjoyed - to be believed. It's more impressive from the town below than inside. It's worth a tour of course, don't get me wrong, and certainly worth the short but steep walk up from the town to see it. But the best view is from below, it is just awe inspiring.
4. Pavillon de Manse
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 91 reviews
On the Nonette River, in the heart of Chantilly, the Pavillon de Manse was built at the end of the 17th century by the Prince of Condé and transformed during the 19th century by the duke of Aumale. Designed by J.H Mansart and listed as an historic monument, the old mill houses the Prince of Condé's Machine des Grandes Eaux (1679) and the Duke of Aumale's hydraulic machinery room.

Recently rehabilitated, it's simply beautiful. There was a lot to see with regards to the architecture, the history of the place makes it all the more interesting.
5. Cathedrale Saint-Pierre

Reviewed By 305carab - San Antonio, United States
The cathedral is a gorgeous example of beautiful gothic architecture...the stain glass alone makes the cathedral worth a visit. Make sure to do a lap around the outside of the cathedral as well, there’s some really neat old timey buildings and homes around the backside! It looks like the cathedral is undergoing some renovations on the inside and along the outside a bit as well, so just a heads up on that. But definitely recommend.

Reviewed By T5724HQjohnd - Santa Barbara, United States
This local museum professionally displays archaeology finds in Senlis and the surrounding area. Pre-Roman, Ronan, Byzantine, medieval. Walls, statues, personal items in a chronological order. The art collection is wonderful. Great for a hour or two visit. The small admission fee includes two other museums within 2 blocks.

Was greatly surprised by this place. Thought it would kill an hour but took three. So much detail to take in. Could go again and still not take in everything
