History
The Castle of Ermenonville, a medieval fortress :
The lords of Senlis built a medieval fortress in Ermenonville to manage the traffic between Meaux and Senlis and to assert their power. The first stone of the building was laid in 987. It is provided with an enclosure surrounded by four towers and a drawbridge. In the middle of the 14th century, the castle passed into the hands of Robert de Lorris who took charge of the work after the fire of 1358, following the popular movements during the Great Jacquerie.
In France, the wars of religion, epidemics and famine made the end of the 16th century a painful time. It was in this unstable context that Dominique de Vic, a companion in arms of Henri IV, acquired the estate of Ermenonville and its fortress in 1592. This acquisition led to Henri IV's visit to Ermenonville.
