ジュレボアのおすすめツーリングルート

Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the Routes of Santiago de Compostela, the Basilica of Saint-Etienne is distinguished by its rotunda inspired by the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

In the heart of La Châtre stands the Église Saint-Germain. Graceful, but with a past that has literally collapsed. In 1896, the bell tower collapsed, dragging the entire church down with it. What you see now is a rebirth in stone. Step back in the square for a moment, look up at the new tower, and imagine the chaos of that time. Inside, the stained-glass windows bathe the light in warm hues, as if the church itself is trying to say, "I'm here again."

Very beautiful viewpoint and an emblematic castle of the region

Here, there is no shortage of water: mediocre springs oozing from the slope, placed at the exact junction of different geological terrains, fountains and wash houses marking the path.

An imposing 15th century medieval castle, which withstood the Hundred Years' War and the Wars of Religion, as well as the Revolution, it was saved from ruin by its current owner in 1982. This castle was the setting for George Sand's novel "The Miller of Angibault" under the name of Château de Blanchemont.
