Look and linger, simply fantastic

In Frondremand, the source of the Romaine River springs at the foot of the village and feeds a covered washhouse dating from the 19th century. Built of stone, this washhouse is a well-preserved example of rural utilitarian architecture. The site, bordered by greenery, marks the beginning of the Romaine River, which flows through the Haute-Saône.

Destroyed in 1477 by the troops of Louis XI, the fortified house was rebuilt in the 16th century by Étienne de Labrey. The building is now occupied by a farm. The building was listed as a historical monument in 1977. WIKIPEDIA

Ollans Castle was built in the 18th century. It is surrounded by a vast garden bordered by the river, and decorated with two statues from the 1740s representing Diana and Apollo. It belonged to Charles Derosne, a beekeeping enthusiast and friend of Sully Prudhomme. It is also in this castle that the writer composed his first collection of poetry, Le Bonheur. The castle cannot be visited these days, but it is a great place to take a photo.

Built in the 16th century, the fortified house is made up of buildings defended by loopholes which form a closed courtyard. This fortified house has now been transformed into a farm. It has retained its keep and its chapel, as well as a mill from the beginning of the 18th century. Very well preserved, it is listed as a Historic Monument.

The castle is of Renaissance style, built by preserving elements of the fortified house of the XVᵉ century and remodeled in the XVIIIᵉ and the XIXᵉ century.

Don't forget the church
