The Château de Sauvages (18th century) was a very beautiful residence that belonged to the Marquis de Tussan. By marriage, the castle and land passed to the Boissier family. Abbé Boissier de Sauvages, philosopher, geologist, mineralogist and botanist, lived in the castle for five years and created an arboretum. This is still there and there are different species and centenary trees such as large cedars or cork oaks. In 1912 the property was sold to the Rochebelle mines. 50 years later it was blown up. The buildings that survive today are nothing more than the outbuildings and the farm.
