The village of Saint-Mammès, in addition, provides a multitude of riverside landscapes that are waiting to be enjoyed and "sketched".
Moreover, to be convinced about this, take a look at the work of the Impressionist painter Alfred Sisley who lived in Moret sur Loing at the end of the 19th century and painted numerous sights of our beautiful Saint-Mammès quaysides.

On the Sisley trail, you will see some reproductions of his work on enamelled lava stone plates. These trace the sketches he produced in his notebooks every time he sold a painting, what we nowadays call his "drawings of reason". "Sisley is the painter of a region and not of a town".
Many regional painters still stop along our banks to make pictorial works.
Come taste and capture the inspiration of Sisley and the decorative features that attracted him to Saint-Mammès.
Landscapes are honored with the Sisley orientation tables.
They can be found on the quay of the Seine, near the “Bollards” square.
They allow walkers to visit the places where Alfred Sisley stood to paint.
They are the starting point of his interpretive painting trail, a complementary visit to the Sisley promenade located on the lower level of the “Croix Blanche” quay where the enamelled lava stone plates can be admired.
