    The Motte de Brion is a castle mound. On this artificial hill are the remains of a castle protected by a moat. The enclosure is clearly demarcated.



    The lords who lived in these places between the 11th and 12th centuries were called Bréon.



    This feudal mound offers an exceptional panorama of the Bordes lake, the Sancy massif and the Cantal mountains.

      The motte de Brion on which a castle was once erected allows you to take a little height on the Cézallier for a nice panorama.
