Émerainville

Tourism, holidays & weekends guide in the Seine-et-Marne

Municipality of Seine-et-Marne, in the Île-de-France region, Émerainville takes place on the edge of the department of Seine-Saint-Denis. This "mushroom" town which is part of the perimeter of the new town of Marne-la-Vallée takes place not far from Pontault-Combault, Roissy-en-Brie or Champs-sur-Marne.

The history of Émerainville is very strongly linked to that of its Benedictine abbey of nuns founded in the 12th century. A former seigneury near Paris, it has preserved an important architectural and historical heritage from its heyday.

Its proximity to some of the most beautiful tourist sites in the Ile-de-France region and its pleasant and preserved natural setting make it a privileged vacation spot in this part of France.

Things to see and do

The present church of Émerainville was erected at the end of the 19th century. It has in its interior a statue of Saint Eloi registered with the Historic Monuments. The latter is one of two in France to present the saint with his raised hammer. On site, visitors can also discover an armchair that belonged to Madame Elisabeth, sister of Louis XVI. It was offered by its first lady in waiting, the Countess Diane de Polignac.

In Louis XIII style, the Château de Malnoue was erected in the mid-19th century by Doctor Auguste Nélaton, on the remains of the old Saint-Nicolas chapel. Restored in 2002 by its new owner, it is not accessible to visitors. While strolling through the town, you can also discover the 19th century castle of Émerainville. Property of the Rhône-Poulenc company since the 1950s, it reveals in particular a Henri IV staircase in its oldest buildings. The parks of these two buildings listed as Historic Monuments are accessible to the public.

Don't miss the Maison Carrée, a former hunting lodge at the Château de Champs-sur-Marne, or La Normandie, a Norman-style house whose reconstruction dates back to the first half of the 19th century. It now serves as an annex to the town hall.

To make the most of sunny days, head for the pleasure garden listed as a Historic Monument, the regional wood of Célie or even the Denis Le Camus park classified as a regional nature reserve.

Events and festivities

A fireworks display is organized in mid-July to celebrate the national holiday.

In October, family activities take place during the Nature Festival.
