    This small village is very rich in fossiliferous sites. It is an eponymous site. It gives its name to a very ancient period of life on earth.

    Indeed the Barrêmian is a period of the secondary era very rich in ammonites. The concentration is such that some fountains in the village, you will see, are made up of these fossils.

    The rich collection of paleontologists Marthe and Louis Maurel can be admired in the natural history museum located in the town hall of the village.

    For fans of more contemporary stories, know that Napoleon Bonaparte spent the night in the village on March 4, 1815.
