The site features the remains of fortifications dating from the 11th to the 19th centuries. The former castle of the Lords of Loyes (ruins of the Château de la Pie), the modern castle, the formal garden, and the kitchen garden are all visible. In the 18th century, major work was carried out on the Château de Loyes, but a fire destroyed the tops of the towers and the roof. In 1840, renovations were undertaken, including the construction of outbuildings, a woodshed/cellar, and stables. At the end of the 19th century, a church was built, dividing the castle mound in two. The castle entrance was modified at the end of the 19th century, along with the neo-Gothic wall. The garden, originally laid out in the early 18th century, was modernized by Luizet and Barret at the end of the 19th century; a landscaped garden was added to the formal garden. The castle mound is accessible via a footpath. Inside, a 17th-century staircase with ramps is adorned with the coats of arms of its various owners, painted in the 19th century. https://pop.culture.gouv.fr/notice/merimee/PA01000030

A beautiful 19th-century Cistercian abbey built in a remarkable brick style. Don't hesitate to make a short detour to see it. The church and atrium are free to visit. It is closed on Tuesdays. A local produce shop is located at the entrance to the abbey, featuring cheeses and apple products made on the abbey farm—a great way to recharge your batteries!

Lovely place with direct cheese sales! The surrounding roads are pleasant.

Although there are thousands of lakes in this area, there are few places where you can get to a lake by public transport, like here.

Notre-Dame des Dombes Abbey, founded in the 1860s by the Cistercians. Worth the detour. Free visit to the church.

The remains of the Château de Loyes. The castle is currently closed, but you can still appreciate the impressive exterior.
