Discover the Hôtel-de-Ville
Until 1876, the town hall of Saint-Maur was located in various houses near the church of Saint-Nicolas in the district of Vieux-Saint-Maur. A rather central position that feeds the independence wills of La Varenne. The development of the urbanization of the Marne loop makes it essential to move the town hall to a more central location. The debates are fierce. The construction of the City Hall of Saint-Maur began on August 18, 1876 on land donated by Louis-Désiré Mahieu, former mayor of the municipality. Too small because of the increase in population, the building was enlarged between 1937 and 1941 under the direction of Lucien Graf, architect of the City. From the original town hall, there remains the central part of the facade and the wedding hall, decorated by Paul-Albert Beaudoin, which you will discover during the visit that will end on the top floor to enjoy the beautiful view offered from the roofs.
