FOUNTAIN OF LOVE
Fine stone tower, 6 meters high, whose name refers to an ancient legend of old Pontoise
6 meters high, this fine ashlar tower, dating from the 18th century, surmounts a well. Its name refers to an ancient legend of old Pontoise. Alix, the daughter of the Lord of Nesles, used to meet her lover, the squire Béranger, there, despite her father's disapproval. When he discovered this, he sent his henchmen to murder the young man. The young lady was inconsolable and decided to enter a convent. She spent the rest of her life at the Abbey of Maubuisson, in Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône.
