Over the centuries, the cathedral has undergone many changes. It was consecrated by Pope Urban II on August 5, 1095, destroyed during the Wars of Religion, and rebuilt identically in the 17th century. In the 18th century, Bishop Alexandre Milon de Mesme extensively renovated his palace and church. In particular, he financed the great organ and its case, a new marble altar, and paintings. The monument to Pope Pius VI, who died in Valencia in 1799 as a prisoner of the Directory, was placed in the choir. In the 19th century, the bell tower was struck by lightning. It was rebuilt, partly in Crussol stone, whose white color contrasted with the rest of the building, which was mainly made of molasse. The cathedral was listed as a historic monument in 1869.

The cathedral of the diocese of Valence has the rank of a minor basilica and is dedicated to Apollinaris of Ravenna. It dates from the 11th century and was rebuilt after the Huguenot Wars at the beginning of the 17th century. It has been listed as a monument historique since 1862.

Superb esplanade enriched by the Peynet kiosk. The park, below, is magnificent and encourages strolling. Do not hesitate to leave Via Rhôna and enter old Valencia, the Cathedral, the House of the Heads, the parks and alleys will enchant your trip.

From the cycle path, you can see the eastern face of the Guercy massif, where the Soyons caves, discovered in the 19th century, are located. The Nero cave contains traces of prehistoric human and Neanderthal life, while the Trou du Renard is a vast network of galleries resulting from limestone concretions.

Cafe / Resto at the bottom. Nothing at the top. The road has just been resurfaced so the descent is great. Be careful though, especially in the wet as water drains across the surface in places, typically on or just before the corners. Plenty of coffee and cake in Chabeuil. If you wanted to add a bit more you could descend to Beaufort-sur-Gervanne, which is a good option if the boulangerie is open, or loop across the top from Cavalli to Col des Limouches. It's over 1000 meters altitude and the descent is more technical. Some shaded picnic tables too.

For this cycling stage at 20 euros per night you will have free WIFI, the bike garage and its workshop, the equipped kitchen available, lots of information to organize your trip, the atmosphere, the very nice terrace, the bike decoration, etc. …
