A small rural village, Châtelus was founded by the Gauls. Over the years, it grew into a substantial village, located on the important Roman road linking Cusset (Allier) to Marcigny (Loire). It houses a castle, later destroyed by the violent Wars of Religion. Today, the town maintains a museum dedicated to the 19th-century school, including numerous documents and furniture dating back to 1830. The museum is open on summer afternoons, from Thursday to Saturday.
