Sights and monuments

The Château de Tanqueux manor house dates back to 1488, and the parish church of St Étienne to 1130.[2]

The gardens of the Château de Tanqueux were laid out in 1805. Privately owned, they are not open to the public.[3] The parish church was modified in the 13th and 14th centuries. It has been classified since 1981 as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture.[4]
