TOWN PRESENTATION

History:

Created in the 70s, to help rebalance the east of Paris Regional Development, the new town of Marne-la-Vallee has many means of communication: the A4 and A104, the RN36, RER A and Chessy TGV International. The airport of Roissy Charles de Gaulle is located 30 minutes from the motorway.
Its institutional structure is very fragmented (4 areas of development, 3 intercommunal, 26 municipalities, two public planning) and development in a coherent territorially. Thus the two main urban centers (Noisy-le-Grand and the Val d'Europe) are located at both ends of the territory.
In the mid-80, the company Walt Disney Company is seeking to develop its activities worldwide, particularly in Europe, putting into practice a new concept in property development related to amusement parks. Beyond an image strategy, it is to benefit from capital gains generated by land to the park and the presence of life partner. In this perspective, the site of Marne-la-Vallee, divided into four sectors, presented the advantages of proximity to the center of Paris market and available land. So in the middle of the fourth sector of Marne-la-Vallee Disney that took root at the same time as was the New Town Association (SAN) Portes de la Brie, to be called in 2001 SAN du Val Europe.
In this context, the city of Bailly-Romainvilliers experienced a rapid urban expansion and population growth, from 371 inhabitants in 1975 to 609 in 1990, 3,395 in 1999 and 5421 in 2006 and 5690 in 2010 and 5791 to 1 January 2011 (according to INSEE). This population is mainly characterized by its youth and dynamism: 80% of the population is in fact less than 40 years, and nearly one in five residents is enrolled in kindergarten or elementary school. In this development, the town is constantly changing to offer new services and facilities to the public in an evolutionary manner, to allow always meet the needs of its population.
While the Val d'Europe is now 23 820 inhabitants, by 2015, the goal is to build a community of about 35,000 inhabitants. At that date and at the end of its development, Bailly-Romainvilliers for its part should take approximately 12 000 inhabitants.
However, despite its evolution, Bailly-Romainvilliers has kept its "soul" of the village. His attachment to his past and heritage are key elements of this phenomenon with the existence of the Hamlet of Bailly.
In the Middle Ages, Bailly was the village with a church, farms and a castle. Romainvilliers, whose name comes from the Latin Romanus (The Roman) and the Latin villa (the field), was a hamlet in the middle of the field.
In the 12th century, was a priory, which depended on the County of Champagne. It was located in the center of a parish territory covered with wood, originally from the hamlet of Bailly.
Current research carried out by INRAP, led to the discovery of a necropolis in which primitive were identified forty graves grouped around the tomb to the bell. This cemetery defines a community facility, a hospice.
Since 1172, the texts cite the stately home of Bailly. The transformation of the manor fortified building takes place around 1250.
In the 13th century, around 1280, the monks of the Abbey of Saint Germain des Pres Bailly transfer to the seat of the parish of Romainvilliers. The priory is situated next to the church. Another priory was founded at a place called The Little Hermières.
Bailly preserves the remains of an ancient castle built in the 14th century, the capital of a domain large enough that extended to Serris.
The Lordship of Bailly is Pileur in 1575 to Thomas, Lord of Serris and Magny-le-Hongre. At his death in 1641, his son Hardouin Foucher (whose tombstone is retained in the Church of Bailly), married to Valentine Pileur, inherited Bailly. Claude Barre, a lawyer in the Court of Parliament, is lord of Bailly to 1667. He sold the manor to Mary Nicole Guillebon, wife of Jean Jourdan, secretary to the king. The latter's son, Admiral François Morin de Tourville inherit the earth (1642-1701) and sold it to Gilbert Antoine Ligier de La Prade, esquire of the king. The last Lord of the Marquis Louis Bailly is Paul de la Motte Ango de Flers, whose property will be sold as national property during the Revolution.
The old castle of the lords of Bailly, built on a median rectangular, surrounded by a moat and reached by a bridge was destroyed. Only a few vestiges remain (moat, dungeon, ancient walls ...), Dungeon Farm, the farm houses of Valois and the hamlet located in the current street Poncelet.
Until 1864 the seat of the county was Bailly where were the church, castle and large farms.
Becoming a simple farming village, Romainvilliers retains a devotional chapel (Notre Dame). This chapel later became a modified farm called Saint-Blandin, whose barn houses in the early 19th century the remains of a chapel of the same name. According to a general plan of 1883, there were also close to the Champs Farm.
In the early 20th century a road was built connecting Paris and Coulommiers through Romainvilliers. With this new communication channel, the hamlet of Romainvilliers developed. It built the town hall that also served as a school, a great place and business settled. Romainvilliers became the capital of the municipality and a hamlet Bailly.
Now, the village of Bailly consists essentially of two traditional farms, de Valois and the Dungeon, as well as the church, the last vestige of the old priory.
In the early 20th century a road was built through Romainvilliers between Coulommiers in Paris. With this new communication channel, the hamlet of Romainvilliers develops. It built the Town Hall, which also serves as a school and a great place. Shops installed. Romainvilliers became the capital of the commune, and Bailly, the hamlet.

SIGHTSEEING

Shut the dungeon:

Bailly retains vestiges of the old castle built in the 14th century. The deeds of 1528 describes "a way to keep flag at the entrance of the castle, furnished with two Tournelles half round and square on the front. From the front, with stone battlements. In the pavilion, there the two square rooms on each other, and a room at the height, down prisons by top closets and small firm and outside, leaning against the house, a spiral staircase and a small square, serving as a latrine. "
Some famous people have visited the various lords of Bailly, which said fourth Philippe Philip the Fair in 1311, Charles 4th 6th in 1326 and Philippe de Valois in 1350. In the 15th century, the priory was sold to Lord of Bailly, Thibaud Signet. It then becomes a privileged space for hunting. The Hundred Years War, which raged in the 15th and 16th centuries, the hamlet of savings Bailly. This site is then up to the revolution, the residence of the great figures of court, parliamentary, squires, lawyers of the king. Over time, the dungeon will remain the only part that crosses history, despite the demolitions ordered by the Revolution. In the late 15th century, the lordship of Bailly is owned by Robert Thiboust, president of the court that turns the house into a castle-high residential. In the 17th century, the Bailiwick is a manorial court. In the 18th century, a farm is the assistant to the castle of Bailly. A gate provides access. The ornamentation of this entry mimics the buildings Norman half-timbered.
Mountains and flanked by crenellated towers, the tower was restored in 1856, in the style of medieval castles in vogue. Reinforcement work for the shed, the tower and the stables are made from July to October 2011. Unfortunately, the hunting lodge, whose state of disrepair makes it dangerous, can not be recovered. Three interventions are planned: carpentry work, roofing and waterproofing, masonry and structural recovery and joinery.

The church of Notre-Dame, dating the 18th century:

The church erected Bailly under the patronage of the Assumption of the Virgin has remained at the graduation of the monks of Saint-Germain-des-Prés until the Revolution. The chapel of the priory was it located in the church from Bailly, near the choir. No document can specify the date of construction of the church erected at Bailly. In the late 15th century, this building is called Our Lady of Condra. In 1929, the parishioners of Bailly-Romainvilliers send a scathing petition to the council: they require the destruction of the Church of Our Lady, situated in the village of Bailly and require the construction of a chapel in the hamlet of Romainvilliers. The mayor passes the request to the prefect of Seine-et-Marne. The latter replied that only the bishop is able to authorize the destruction of a religious building, and that, moreover, the separation of church and state prohibits it from 1905 down payment in the construction of a church. This is how Our Lady of Bailly is preserved.
The Church of Our Lady, which has a cure and a vicarage, presbytery has a dated 19th century and a priory. The people of Bailly were buried in or around the church, according to their rank, until the late 19th century. Currently, the church of Bailly-Romainvilliers is called Our Lady of the Assumption. It is located rue Poncelet in the hamlet.

Cemetery:

Despite the Napoleonic law of 23 Prairial XII, which requires municipalities to set their extramural cemetery, the cemetery is relocated on the outskirts of the village in 1890.
The cross of stone, characteristic of the 17th century, placed in the aisle, probably comes from the old cemetery.

The town of Romainvilliers:

The town of Romainvilliers was originally a village in the Brie character with some characteristic groups of houses being associated with small farmhouses, old differences, a few houses or farm larger (farm Sainte-Blandine).
This old village around the place retains a part of our day "administrative" and collect certain symbols of collective life.

The former mayor and school:

Building and symmetrical rectangular topped with a steeple, town hall-school Bailly is typical of municipal buildings built in the 19th century. In 1921, the town of Bailly-Romainvilliers wants to erect a monument to soldiers killed during World War I, but opts for a simple plaque for lack of funds. It is affixed near the town hall.
Since 1999, the mayor has moved in extension adjoining the building. A project to rehabilitate the old town hall should be released soon, one way to preserve a heritage dear to the old, for whom she is still the village school. To respect the spirit of the old town hall, the exterior of the building will remain the same.

The Town Hall Square: The modern fountain in its center, its flower beds, the bowling green which is adjacent to contribute to its character. On both sides of the town hall square, the two old wells have become a medium and a floral decoration.
The laundry (corner of the Lavoir and Flaches) Bailly was powered by three systems no longer exist: the system Hanriau before 1876, the atmospheric system Buignet the rosary, in 1896, and the windmill Pitt, even in the 1970s.
