The Bruère-Allichamps column is a Roman landmark dating from the 3rd century. This ancient stone, reused as a sarcophagus in the Middle Ages, would mark the geographical center of France, according to the calculations of the 19th century geographer Adolphe Joanne. The column is located in the village of Bruère-Allichamps, at the intersection of two roads, and is surrounded by a small park with a picnic area. You can also enjoy the view of the Cher valley from the nearby hill, where you will find an orchard and a panoramic viewpoint.
