Brie-Comte-Robert, Medieval castle town in Seine-et-Marne, France.

The town stands in the northern part of Seine-et-Marne department, featuring a medieval fortress and the Gothic Saint-Etienne church with its original rose window.

The name originates from the Gaulish term 'briga' meaning plateau, while Comte-Robert refers to Robert I of Dreux, brother of King Louis VII of France.

The market square forms the center of local life, where residents gather for commerce and social interactions throughout the year.

The commune maintains strong transportation links to Paris and houses multiple services including hotels, supermarkets, and post offices for its 19,213 inhabitants.

The 13th-century Hôtel-Dieu building evolved from a hospital to a nunnery while preserving the original chapel facade within its new construction.
