On the occasion of the 2023 European Heritage Days, adventure awaits us at the Petit Moulin des Vaux de Cernay this Sunday, September 17. On the program: artistic and sporting activities and a rich journey through the history of this emblematic site.

How about a trip to Les Vaux de Cernay for the Journées du Patrimoine? In the heart of the Vallée de Chevreuse, this historic little mill awaits us with an exciting program.

Do you know the history of this exceptional place? Originally named le Moulin de Hotton as early as 1207, this building, remodeled in 1586, has evolved over the years. From mill to inn, it has seen the passage of centuries.

Today, it offers visitors a museum dedicated to several facets of the Vaux de Cernay heritage: evocation of the miller's activity, the formidable geological history of the area and, above all, the indelible imprint of the colony of landscape painters. These artists, armed with their tubes of paint, settled here to capture the raw beauty of this landscape, where sandstone rocks, wet valleys and steep slopes mingle.
