Beautiful little old town. There is an excellent gas-fired pizza place in town that we like to visit when we pass through. Everything is fresh and prepared on site. 🍕🍕🍕

Kirche Cuiseaux

Perched between Bresse and Revermont, this small village is home to the eponymous castle. Dating from the 12th century, the building dominates the Bresse plain from its rocky promontory located at an altitude of 470 meters. Largely in ruins, it can be visited free of charge all year round.

This church houses the painting of “Christ in Outrage” by the famous painter Puvis de Chavannes. From the forecourt of the church you enjoy a magnificent view of the Bresse.

Swimming in the Lavorel lake is very popular during the summer. Here you can swim and enjoy this place for a picnic. A path goes around the body of water.

The pretty medieval village of Cuiseaux is an ideal place for a stroll along its narrow streets and its walkway. Its remains dating from the Middle Ages testify to its past: 12th century fortified gate known as the "orchard gate", Renaissance houses with mullioned windows, castle of the Princes of Orange, watchtower house, washhouse, Saint-Thomas church with remarkable wooden stalls and its black Madonna, winegrowers' houses...

Located on the first foothills of the Jura massif, the Château de Chevreaux is perched on a promontory at an altitude of 470 metres. It already existed in 1158, and since that date several families have succeeded. In 1637, the French army completely destroyed the site. The castle is in ruins but its reconstruction is in progress thanks to the Friends of Chevreaux Châtel association. Here, you can see different craftsmen at work: stone cutters, ironworkers, blacksmiths.

A beautiful cycle path that takes you from Louhans into the countryside.
