Inauguration of the Domaine du Grand Morin
On June 18, 2025, Domaines & événements celebrated the official inauguration of the Domaine du Grand Morin, its 6th reception venue. Located in Jouy-sur-Morin, in Seine-et-Marne, this poetic estate steeped in history joins the group's collection of exceptional venues, true to its mission: Unite & Gather.

A Historic & Poetic Estate
Nestled in a lush bend of the Grand Morin river, the estate – formerly known as the Chaufours, referring to the old lime kilns present on the site – boasts a rich and unique history.
Its origin dates back to 1875, when the Papeteries du Marais et de Sainte-Marie acquired this vast plot of land to build a residence for their director. The château, completed in 1883, features an elegant neoclassical style, emblematic of an era of industrial prosperity.
Over the decades, the estate has had many lives: bourgeois residence, military hospital during World War I, then religious center in the 1930s under the auspices of the Hosanna institution. It was then requisitioned by the German army during World War II, before gradually falling into disuse.
It was in 1968 that the site found a new lease on life, purchased by BNP to become a children's holiday center, managed by its works council.

A reinvention in service of emotion
In 2024, Domaines & événements takes over the estate with the aim of combining respect for heritage, modernity and event potential. Renamed Château du Grand Morin, in homage to the river that runs through it, this name reflects a new identity deeply rooted in its natural environment.
An ambitious renovation is launched: restoration of buildings, development of the 18-hectare landscaped park to promote biodiversity, energy efficiency improvements, selection of local partners... The entire project is part of a sustainable, inclusive approach that respects the soul of the place. This approach was also recognized in May 2025 by the Île-de-France Region Tourism Trophy, highlighting its commitment to responsible tourism.

A festive and unifying launch event
On June 18, over 280 guests – elected officials, partners, service providers, clients, local businesses, employees, and local residents – attended to discover this new venue and enjoy a convivial moment.
The program included: carriage rides, outdoor concerts, magicians, a cocktail reception, and a spectacular fireworks display lighting up the castle's facade. Around thirty dedicated service providers contributed to the success of the evening, embodying the collaborative spirit that drives Domaines & événements.
Among the guests of honor were Michael Rousseau, Mayor of Jouy-sur-Morin, Michel Jozon, Departmental Councilor and Mayor of La Ferté-Gaucher, as well as Tahera Guilloteau, Miss Seine-et-Marne 2025.

An iconic venue from the Domaines & événements collection
With this inauguration, Domaines & événements enriches its collection with a 6th estate. Each venue in the group has its own identity, its unique history, but all share the same vision: reinventing heritage sites in the heart of nature, to give rise to shared emotions.
The Château du Grand Morin perfectly embodies this philosophy. Suitable for weddings, seminars, anniversaries, corporate events and group stays, it offers a peaceful, refined, and inspiring setting less than 1h30 from Paris.
