Tips & Advice

  • Plan to eat at the Rotary's Espace Café, which serves mulled wine, crêpes, waffles and white sausages, because the domaine has no restaurant of its own.
  • Take the children to the Rotary tent, where they can pose for photos with Santa in a decorated setting.
  • Stay until closing to catch the five-minute fireworks display on the north parterre, one of the extras the domaine is putting on.
  • Add the crèche exhibition in the orangerie or the château restoration tour to your day, but note these extras need a separate paid ticket.
  • Dress warmly, because the market is set up outdoors in the park of the Domaine de Chaalis in late November.

Special Events & Promotions

  • For an extra fee, see the 'Les Crèches de nos villages' exhibition in the orangerie.
  • For an extra fee, take the 'Coulisses du chantier' guided tour of the château under restoration.
  • For an extra fee, try the 'Révélation d'un chef d'oeuvre' sound experience in the chapel.
  • A five-minute fireworks display on the north parterre at closing time.
  • Drawings by schoolchildren from Borest and Fontaine-Chaalis, made for the Rotary's competition, are on display.
