ヴォードゥール周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ9

Beautiful church in the village of Dixant, dating from the 9th century. Two additional bays were built in the 13th century with heads of figures on the capitals.

Founded in 1209 on the edge of the forest of Othe by the Order of Gramont, a religious community which had an important influence in the region, this priory was ruined by the Hundred Years War, but rebuilt at the beginning of the 16th century. The order was abolished in 1772 and the building sold for its stones during the French Revolution. Of the priory, all that remains today is the arcature of the facade as well as the ruins of the chapel and the priory dwelling. In the 19th century, there were still ribbed vaults, but they collapsed. The apse which had walls rising up to 4 m also collapsed during the winter of 1996-1997. It is a private property open to the public only on certain occasions such as heritage days. Difficult to see anything other than the facade visible from the road.

Buried in the forest, this castle is hidden and surrounded by trees. It's a real treat to look for this place and not be able to spot it from afar - little adventure.

In the middle of the forest, you will find at this intersection a menhir 1.3 meters high with this plan.

This pierced stone is in fact a megalith in cliquart sandstone (variety of hard sandstone) with a height of around 1.40 m in square shape and which, according to recent archaeological expertise, dates from the Iron Age (around 700 years BC) . It is located at the crossroads of two very pleasant roads that cross the forest.

Small chapel from 1637 in the middle of the woods, with a pretty roof in glazed Burgundy tiles. This chapel, dedicated to Saint Léonard de Noblat, has recently been restored. Unfortunately, the calm is spoiled by the highway which passes about 100m away; it is invisible, but perfectly audible.
