Pont-Sainte-Maxence: Holiday apartments and houses

Culture
The Église Sainte-Maxence was built in the 15th century and was classified as a historic monument by decree of 23 May 1921. Today, the restored church serves people who wish to pray there. The surviving remains of the Perronet Bridge are also classified as a historic monument.
Pont-Sainte-Maxence Town Hall was built in 1929 in the Art Deco style. In Sarron is Saint-Lucien, a Romanesque church built in the second half of the 11th century. The historical interpretation trail along the right bank of the Oise in Pont-Sainte-Maxence comprises six stations with information panels about the Oise and the town’s industrial heritage.
