An ancient find, a traditional festive custom, and a bus route with a specified itinerary give Mauregard several points of interest. The archaeological piece is dated to between 120 BC and AD 37; the timetable for route 9501 has a specific effective date. For your stay, cultural interests and travel arrangements are therefore two separate considerations: one concerns the object and the Saint John’s Day tradition, the other the timetable for your travel date.
An archaeological find from Mauregard
The “Applique en forme de taureau” discovered in Mauregard is dated to the period between 120 BC and AD 37. The French title can be translated as “bull-shaped applique.” The date range does not specify a single time of discovery, but spans the transition from BC to AD. At the Musée ARCHÉA, the piece is part of the chronological permanent exhibition. Mauregard as the findspot and the Musée ARCHÉA as the exhibition venue have distinct roles: the former refers to the discovery, the latter to the presentation. If you would like to visit the museum to see the find, check in advance whether it is currently on display.
The Saint John’s Day tradition
The Saint John’s Day festival, called fête de la Saint-Jean in French, is part of Mauregard’s traditional heritage. It offers a different cultural point of reference from the individual archaeological object: here, the focus is on a festive tradition, not an object with a precisely specified date. For travelers interested in local festival culture, the Saint John’s Day tradition is a reason to visit in its own right, while the find is a concrete archaeological trace. If you would like to plan your stay around a festival, check a current event announcement.
Bus route 9501 in the timetable
The timetable effective from August 28, 2023, showed bus route 9501 serving the Mairie de Mauregard stop. The route connected Gare de Roissypole at Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle Airport with Gare de Survilliers–Fosses. For travelers whose plans include either of these stations, the information specifies a particular route. Since the timetable was effective from the date stated, check the route and service for your travel date before departure. When checking the current timetable, both the number 9501 and the stop and named stations can help.
Distinguishing cultural topics from travel dates
The two dates mean different things: 120 BC to AD 37 places the find in historical context; August 28, 2023, marks the start of the timetable’s validity. For planning a stay, only the second date relates to the timetable, while the object’s dating places the cultural artifact in context. The Saint John’s Day tradition, in turn, is a cultural occasion whose specific event dates you should check. If you are looking for hotels in Mauregard, this distinction helps keep historical interests separate from present-day travel planning.
