WHITE QUEEN'S CASTLE
A strong castle existed in the 901 th century at this location, as evidenced by a currency dated. This is one of the first castles of the era. He later took the name of the Queen Blanche: The White of Castille loved to stay in Asnières with her husband, Louis VIII, and then with his son Saint Louis, who went there to oversee the progress of the construction of the abbey of Royaumont. The Queen Blanche loved this place, both a house of pleasure and a point of departure (she made her own park of pets). Fell in ruins, the castle was alienated by Louis XV in 1748. Taken back to the Revolution by a cotton spinner, it is almost entirely rebuilt in 1845: there are only two very different towers of the original castle. You can still see the foundations of the other seven towers, as well as those of the moat.
