Taxi Senlis —
the medieval Carolingian city, 30 km from CDG
Taxi service in Senlis (60300), Oise sub-prefecture and historical Carolingian capital — Hugues Capet was elected king here in 987, founding the dynasty that would rule France for eight centuries. The town has kept an intact medieval heart: Notre-Dame cathedral (works started 1153, ten years before Notre-Dame de Paris), Gallo-Roman ramparts (visible over 850 m), cobbled streets, Renaissance mansions. This preservation explains why film crews settle here regularly — Asterix and Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, Cyrano de Bergerac and Les Visiteurs were shot in town. At 30 km from CDG, Senlis is also a discreet arrival point for international visitors who want to skip Paris.
Transparent metered fare. Government meter for short urban runs and immediate surroundings. Estimated quote before departure for Paris (50 km), CDG (30 km) or Chantilly (10 km).

Senlis — frozen in time
A thousand years of history within 850 m of ramparts
Senlis (population 16,000) is an urban anomaly. Royal capital in the 10th century, bypassed by the 19th-century industrial boom, it has crossed the modern era without transformation. The result is an intact 25-hectare town centre, ringed by Gallo-Roman ramparts from the 3rd century — one of the rare antique walls visible in northern France. Inside: the Notre-Dame cathedral whose western portal sculpted in 1170 influenced Chartres and Paris; the former Saint-Vincent abbey; the royal Saint-Frambourg chapel (founded by Queen Adelaide, now the Cziffra concert hall); and the Gallo-Roman amphitheatre. This historical density and the absence of modern signs explain why filmmakers love Senlis: it's one of France's favourite medieval sets.

12th c. (works 1153). One of France's earliest gothic cathedrals, predating Notre-Dame de Paris. Western portal sculpted with the Coronation of the Virgin, model for Chartres. Drop-off Place du Parvis.
