The aim of change-point detection is to discover the changes in behavior that lie behind time sequence data. In this article, we study the case where the data comes from an inhomogeneous Poisson process or a marked Poisson process. We present a methodology for detecting multiple offline change-points based on a minimum contrast estimator. In particular, we explain how to handle the continuous nature of the process with the available discrete observations. In addition, we select the appropriate number of regimes via a cross-validation procedure which is really handy here due to the nature of the Poisson process. Through experiments on simulated and real data sets, we demonstrate the interest of the proposed method. The proposed method has been implemented in the R package \texttt{CptPointProcess} R.
