La Féculerie, now abandoned, built in the 19th century (conciergerie dated 1842). Potato cultivation is growing throughout the country and supplanting rapeseed cultivation.
Increasingly prosperous activity but the facilities are not changing much. It declined and closed in the 1970s. The starch factory employed up to 160 workers.

Pagny-la-Ville is a small, cozy village on the Saone. If you're lucky, even a bar is open.
