Hiking
La Chapelle Sainte-Barbe is a 15th century chapel perched on a rocky cliff overlooking the Ellé. It is accessed by a monumental staircase with balusters. The chapel has a stone ribbed vault, stained glass windows and the coat of arms of the founding lords. The site is part of the route to Santiago de Compostela and every year hosts a festival in honor of Sainte-Barbe, patroness of miners and artillerymen. The chapel is open to visitors from July to August and offers guided tours.
