Photographer’s Note

The city is divided into two parts, the fortified city, which had administrative and military functions; and the new city, which was dedicated to trade and fairs. The main architectural interest in the city is the 57 m high bell tower of the Church Notre-Dame (XVth century).
The stone of Château-Landon, resistant to frost, was used to build several big monuments in Paris, such as the Cathedral Notre-Dame, the Panthéon and the National Library. Quarries are still in activity in the neighbouring city of Souppes-sur-Loing.
