Today, the Church of Saint Martin in Villiers-Charlemagne can be visited. Its large nave and two aisles are designed in the Neo-Romanesque style with Gothic elements, including pointed-arch vaults.

Culture and history

The Pont de la Valette is a five-arch bridge made of sandstone rubble masonry. Its abutments have openings for riverside paths, including the towpath on the right bank.

The organ in the Church of Saint Martin is used several times a year. Its case is made of oak and designed in the Gothic style. The ruins of the Moulin à farine de Cée are still visible. Of the former Moulin à foulon de la Valette, which later served as a boathouse, only a few sections of wall remain today, overgrown with vegetation.
