On the heritage trail through Vieux Goussainville, the Church of Saint-Pierre-Saint-Paul is the first stop on an exploration of the partially abandoned historic centre. Goussainville also offers culture at the Espace Sarah Bernhardt and active leisure at AbracadaParc. These different attractions give you a starting point for planning your stay around your interests.

Culture and outreach

The Espace Sarah Bernhardt offers a multidisciplinary cultural programme. Its artistic programme focuses on young audiences as well as cultural and artistic outreach. Multidisciplinary means that the programme is not limited to a single cultural discipline; its focus on outreach adds another dimension to this breadth. This gives you a distinct point to consider when making your choice: you can decide whether you are mainly looking for a programme or whether cultural and artistic outreach is also part of your interest. The performance hall is accessible to people with reduced mobility. Unlike the heritage trail, the focus here is on a cultural programme with outreach.

Historic centre and heritage

The heritage trail through Vieux Goussainville leads through Goussainville’s partially abandoned historic centre. The Church of Saint-Pierre-Saint-Paul is listed as a historic monument and is the first stop on the trail. This brings together a clearly identified individual monument and an exploration set within the town centre. If you prefer to explore history in the context of a historic centre rather than at a single building, the trail could be the focus of your visit. If you are mainly interested in the monument, the church offers a specific destination. The difference between visiting the church and taking the trail can help you decide what matters most: one building or an exploration of the town centre.

Active leisure at AbracadaParc

At AbracadaParc, visitors can move freely through suspended nets and tree structures without a safety harness. The activities include net courses, tree houses, zip lines and swings, as well as ground-level games. Its focus on movement and play sets this visit apart from the cultural programme and the exploration of the historic centre. If you are considering this activity, check the latest operating details before your visit, as the attraction description and facilities may change.

Practical information for getting there and visiting

Goussainville station is accessible with assistance. Check the latest information from Transilien RER D before travelling. This information concerns the station; at the Espace Sarah Bernhardt, the accessibility information for people with reduced mobility applies to the performance hall. If both details are important to your plans, consider them separately and for the relevant location.

Parc du Château in Vieux Pays is free to access and is currently open. As arrangements may change, check the latest information before your visit. This will help you take the park’s access conditions into account when planning.

Consider which of these interests will be the deciding factor for your trip before searching for hotels.
