In 1951, the Château Leroy became the property of the Ministry of the Interior; the headquarters, depot, and command post of the Compagnie républicaine de sécurité No. 3 (3e CRS) were established there.

The Croix de Villeroy stood in the municipality of Quincy-sous-Sénart, at the center of one of the forest’s most important crossroads; it was erected by order of Henry IV and marked the site of a significant hunting gathering.
