The village of Sainte-Aulde borders and overlooks the Marne in its loop that leads to the Seine. An exceptional view of the river but also the vast ponds Luzancy worth visiting for visiting the Country Fertois including La Ferte-sous-Jouarre is the county seat.

Easily accessible by the A4 motorway and the train station through the east village clinging to the wooded hills full of surprises along the banks of the Marne or its many footpaths. It is the haven for hikers and distraction whose walks are interspersed with the discovery of eight wash houses of the town, gradually restored by the municipality.

The Romanesque church of the 12th century and the history of the saint who gave his name to the village are the other attractions. Indeed, the legend says that St. Aulde was born in this village in the fifth century, before joining St. Genevieve in Paris and the Court of Clovis. His relics were presented to King Louis on his return from the Crusades in 1239 and then kept in the church of his town through the intervention of Bossuet, bishop of Meaux, in 1699.

Things to see and do

In addition to landscapes and harbors of greenery, it should not miss the Romanesque church contains a beautiful stone statue of the 15th century, listed "historic monument" in 1954, representing St. Fiacre, patron saint of gardeners, glass of quality and a 19th century wooden crucifix carved, probably 18th century. A major restoration work is undertaken gradually over several years by the municipality with the support of the Heritage Foundation.

Do not forget the wash that mark the town and offer beautiful views over the valley.

The local fair and flea market is famous throughout the township: the second Sunday of May.

The feast of St. Fiacre is the opportunity to decorate the church for many fruits, vegetables and garden produce and celebrate a Mass: 1st Sunday of September.
