カルサック＝ド＝グルソン周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ10

August 3, 2023 - passing showers. Very pretty little path that brings lots of surprises: vineyards, natural swimming pool, various springs, facade in Saint-Emilion stone (or Bordeaux stone), and varied landscapes.

11th-century church built on the site of a Roman building. Marble capitals from this ancient building were used under the apse portico. The capitals of the triumphal arch are decorated with biblical motifs. Two bas-reliefs depicting Adam and Eve and Saints Peter and Paul are carved into the side walls of the bell tower.

A graft (also known as graft or seedling) is a graft in viticulture; a scion is grafted (grafted) onto the rootstock by means of special cutting forms, thus creating an artificial connection of two wooden parts of different grape varieties (the rootstock and a European variety susceptible to phylloxera) for the purpose of grafting the grapevines (Wikipedia).

As the turning point of a tour beautiful. You can swim and visit Gurson Castle (on private property). Quite full on the weekend.

You drive downhill from the forest on a good road surface directly towards the castle. A great sight that is also worthwhile when approaching from the other direction. There is also a café at the foot of the château. Unfortunately you are sitting directly on / on the street.

This one, you don't expect to find out, no matter which side of the road you arrive on. Well hidden by the relief and vegetation, it only reveals at the last moment, straight from medieval dreams. Do not forget the 12th century Romanesque church at its feet.
