Culture
The war memorial in Marquéglise depicts France in the form of a woman. The figure rests on a pedestal decorated with four war scenes executed in high relief. The monument was created in 1924 by the sculptor Marcel Pierre de Bréal.
The Église Saint-Pierre contains a bust of Abbé Eugène Boulet (1907–1937), who was awarded the Croix de guerre. The church was built at the beginning of the 16th century. After being severely damaged on 9 June 1918, it was largely rebuilt true to the original in 1922–1923. On its northern side is a large polygonal staircase tower that has remained intact.
History
The Villa des Vivrets stands on the site of the former hunting lodge of the Château de Marquéglise. It escaped damage during the First World War and served as German headquarters during the Second World War. The former railway line from Compiègne to Roye is also part of the history of the town: it ran through the municipality of Marquéglise.
Things to do
The Fontaine Saint-Pierre route passes through Marquéglise. It is designated as a route for hiking, mountain biking, horse riding and micro-hikes.
