Favorite ❤️: For a nice break (coffee, pie, ice cream, savory) surrounded by beautiful historical objects (for sale), this is the perfect place. And the owner is friendly!

This statue of the Virgin Mary, which stands on a tower, dates from 1876

This stone, with its fine grain and delicate pink color, is a peculiarity of Saint Gernain: it is sandstone, the rock that outcrops at the site of "Les Carriers," where it forms a hill overlooking the wide cone of fluvioglacial ejecta from the Ognon. Indeed, the former ice ages caused the extensive deposits of alluvial soil that covered virtually the entire territory of Saint Germain and the neighboring communes. A succession of layers of different materials, mixed with varying degrees of clay, explains the numerous springs, streams, and wetlands. Humans have exploited this abundance of water: here by drainage, there by retaining the water for ponds or for use as washing places.

Worth seeing church

La Vergenne is a former industrial estate linked to pottery, located near Athesans. It still boasts a 19th-century kiln, typical of the region, as well as several buildings related to production.

Athesans, a former pottery village, is characterized by this artisanal expertise. Kilns, traditional buildings, and remains related to ceramics production can still be found there.

Not seen the market but nice place and nice starts.

Last architectural witness to the Ronchamp coal mines.
