Dating from the Gallo-Roman period, the so-called "Pas de la Mule" bridge is located on the Seugne. Made up of 6 blocks of stone, it linked the village of Lansac to a water mill called "la cité". It also allowed the passage of animals transporting cereals and flour between the watermill, in the commune of Saint Georges Antignac, and the windmills of Les Groies in Clion.

Also called “Pas de la Mule”. This bridge located on the Seugne, near the Métairie de Lansac, is made of 6 stone blocks.
It dates from the Gallo-Roman period.
Formerly, it linked the village of Lansac to a water mill called "the city". This bridge allowed the passage of animals carrying cereals and flour between the water mill, in the town of Saint Georges Antignac, and the “Groies” windmills in Clion.
The repeated passages of the miller and his donkey would explain the wear of the stone.
According to legend, the stones were dug lengthwise in order to guide the animals' steps. Then they would have been pierced right through to avoid accidents caused by water that stagnated and froze in winter.
This green site conducive to fishing and relaxation, furnished with tables, will welcome you as a family. Please note that camping and prolonged parking of caravans and motor homes is prohibited.
