Originally a priory founded in the 9th century in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, the château du Prieuré went through several transformations before becoming, in the 20th century, the Musée de la Batellerie. The families who owned it throughout the 19th century gave it its present appearance, combining neo-Renaissance and neo-Gothic references on the façades. Visitors come today to see the collections devoted to river navigation, housed in a building whose crypt still bears witness to its medieval origins.
