ラプラドのおすすめツーリングルート

A charming village and home to the largest underground church in Europe. It is officially listed as "one of the most beautiful villages in France." Located in the southern Charente region, it borders the Dordogne, renowned for its historic villages, castles, prehistoric caves, and breathtaking landscapes. In the heart of the village, a lovely square awaits you, lined with terraces and restaurants. Enjoy strolling through its narrow, cobbled, medieval, and romantic streets, lined with typical stone houses that give the village its special and picturesque character.

A visit is absolutely recommended, unique.

Bucolic path along the Dronne under the cover of trees.

Church in the village of Bonnes, built in the 12th or 13th century. The chapels, the bell tower and its bell, and the portal date from the first half of the 16th century. These features led to the building's classification as a Historic Monument in 1995. A canopy attached to the main facade provides welcome shelter in rainy weather.

Very beautiful village

Built in the 10th and 11th centuries, the medieval castle overlooks the Dronne River and the Double Forest. Unfortunately, it is not open to the public as it now houses the Town Hall (except in summer during guided tours or as part of events such as "Châteaux en Fête" or the "Fête des Bastides"). However, during Town Hall opening hours, visitors can take a look at the ground floor and admire the imposing staircase.

Magnificent church of a former 12th-century priory, restored in the 19th century. The Saintonge-style façade, the forechoir, the bell tower, and the apse date from the Romanesque period. The Romanesque capitals of the façade and apse are very well preserved.

A stone's throw from Aubeterre-sur-Dronne, this overlooking position offers a superb view of the Dronne valley.
