It's clear that access to the Chamboux mills will have to be on foot. After a few hundred meters, regardless of which way you approach them, you'll discover two magnificent, well-restored mills. One of the mills was used to grind grain, while the other was used to generate electricity. Unfortunately, it's not possible to go inside these buildings. A few benches allow you to take a break and appreciate the beauty and tranquility of the place. You can barely hear the sound of the water powering the mills.

This medieval bridge, known as the 'Soubre Bridge' and made up of four arches, those at the ends in a semi-circular arch, the other two in a pointed arch, bears the name of a tapestry manufacturer whose workshops were located nearby. In the 16th century, Felletin was a prosperous town which saw the development of a significant number of industries: flour milling, tanning, paper milling, dyeing, etc. The river provided the energy necessary for the operation of the numerous mills.
