Editing Compiègne (section)

===What to do/see===

There are many lovely monuments in Compiègne and around. First of all, see the '''town hall''' in which you'll find the '''tourism office'''. '''The two gothic churches St Antoine and St Jacques''' can be visited. Have a look on the '''Palace''' (Palais), also called Castle (Château) and '''its gardens that open to the « allée des Beaux Monts »''' (Beaux Monts Path), a several kilometers grass straight path through the forest. There are also various museums and interesting streets, ask the tourism office.

If you can move around '''Compiègne''', see the '''village of Pierrefond''' with it's castle which seems to come straight from a fairy tale. You can also visit the '''1918 armistice museum''' of Rethondes. The villages and the bike road in the forest are also very nice. The forest itself is really beautiful and worths a walk. It's all good for mountain bikes, horses, walking, running or mushroom harvesting (please be cautious to avoid any “definitive” mistake).
