TOWN HOTEL
Hotel with an elegant architecture typical of the flamboyant gothic of the century in Compiègne.
This town hall features elegant architecture typical of the 16th-century flamboyant Gothic style. The building was restored in the 19th century at the instigation of Napoleon III. Every quarter of an hour, you'll hear the bells chime! Look above the clock: three figures are dedicated to this task. Symbols of the city, the three "Picantins" are Langlois (in red), Flandrin (in blue) and Lansquenet (in green). They are in fact the city's three traditional enemies: the English, the Flemish and the German!
