The Fountain of the “Peute Beast” is a curious fountain, dating from the 18th century, resembling an animal with dragon features and linked to a fantastic local legend by Jean Robinet. According to legend, the fountain represents a monstrous beast which terrorized the villagers and which was defeated by a celestial knight. The fountain is located in the village square, next to the church and cemetery, and is a registered historic monument.
