サン・サトゥルナンのおすすめツーリングルート

橋の上からの眺めが一番美しいです。

What you don't see when you walk here: this lake exists thanks to sheer stubbornness. When the La Joyante River was dammed in the 1970s, no one believed the lake would ever amount to anything. Too isolated, too wild. But nature had other plans. Today, the water is so calm that you almost forget how much effort it once took to tame this landscape.

This gate, built in the middle of the 15th century, was the entrance to the castle and opened onto the suburbs of the city. It was crossed by a double drawbridge, which spanned a deep moat. The small gate was reserved for pedestrians, the larger one for vehicles and horses. The interior of the enclosure was gradually sold to individuals and residences were built there, so much so that in the 16th century the "new town", as it was called, was located within the castle enclosure. It was not until the 18th century that the moat was filled in. In the following century, the gate was reduced in height, by the removal of the 2nd floor and the machicolations.

Nice little body of water, ideal for a picnic break 🙃

A small, beautifully situated lake at the beginning of the village. A great place to take a short rest.
