Small town located on the Saclay plateau, 25 kilometers from Paris, is an old typical country village. From the church, leaving only the magnificent spire of the 12th century. Excavations have revealed a habitat from the Neolithic period.
Consequence of the particular geology of the plateau, drainage fields and meadows operated under Louis 14th led to a widening network of channels leading water from the aqueduct Buc to the park of Versailles.

Wells covered: there are three in the village of Saint-Aubin, one along the wall of the quarry, another street of the Stage, and another leaning against the wall of the farm of the Commandery Street Belltower. The wells are covered to avoid possible falling leaves that make the water unfit for consumption.
The building of the farm of the Commandery it is the only private house in the village. Very impressive, dominating the court, it reflects the success of large landowners in the 18th century. It is built on a plinth and has two millstones fore-front.
