サン＝メアード＝ドゥ＝グルソンのおすすめライド

Very interesting visit

Quite small town. Great summer fete in beginning of August. The restaurant on the main place doesn’t look to spectacular but the food and service is really good. Very friendly people everywhere.

Built in the 14th century, it was remodeled and rebuilt many times after the devastating fire of 1885. Today, you can visit this magnificent pleasure castle, typical of the Belle Époque. The guided tour of the Tower is an invitation to follow in the footsteps of the famous philosopher, through a comprehensive evocation of his life, his era, his work, and his thoughts.

(...) if you only visit the tower as indicated here it's a scam, otherwise very beautiful castle, but there are plenty in the surroundings...

Bridge to join the small town of Mussidan, recently a greenway was inaugurated above.

Tucked away in a back yard, on the hill beyond, you can see the remains of the Chateau de Gurson.

Nice view from the slightly elevated Villefranche-de-Lonchat to the plain in front of it.

The view alone is worth the climb from D21. The château is privately owned and cannot be visited.
