Small restaurant available on the banks of the Allier. The setting is very bucolic. A very beautiful village.

April 2025. Permanently closed :(

Village classified among the most beautiful in France

A beautiful castle ruin that unfortunately cannot be visited as it is fenced off and privately owned.

Interesting place. The canal is fed from here.

Unfortunately this monument was closed when we passed by. That's why there is only one photo!

A castle classified as a historic monument since 1914, it is made up of a massive keep and a fortified enclosure surrounded by a moat. A river, the Sagonin, supplies them with water. This estate has the particularity of having belonged to the great architect of Louis XIV, Jules Hardouin-Mansart. Its acquisition in 1699 had a specific goal for him: that of owning a titled feudal domain in order to be able to claim its ennoblement by the king in 1682 and thus have his arms appear on all his documents and portraits. The castle subsequently experienced long periods of abandonment and today only the medieval part remains, restored by volunteer projects from 1977.
