Look and linger, simply fantastic

Fondremand Castle, a listed Historic Monument, is a medieval fortress whose first constructions date back to the 12th century. Remodeled in the 15th and 16th centuries, it still retains a keep, corner towers, and a partial wall. Formerly owned by the lords of Fondremand, it overlooks the village and the source of the Romaine River.

The Church of the Nativity of Our Lady in Fondremand dates from the 15th and 16th centuries and combines Gothic style with Renaissance elements. It is distinguished by its massive bell tower-porch, its ribbed vaults, and its antique furnishings.

In Frondremand, the source of the Romaine River springs at the foot of the village and feeds a covered washhouse dating from the 19th century. Built of stone, this washhouse is a well-preserved example of rural utilitarian architecture. The site, bordered by greenery, marks the beginning of the Romaine River, which flows through the Haute-Saône.

The Oiselay family had owned a fortified castle here since the 11th century. Following its destruction, this imposing U-shaped castle was rebuilt. The round tower dates from the 15th century and the courtyard façade from 1570. New work then took place on the building during the first half of the 19th century. Following a marriage linking the Oiselay family to the Granvelle family, we find icons recalling this illustrious family which notably included the Keeper of the Seals of Charles V, a cardinal and an ambassador. Currently private property, unfortunately it cannot be visited.

Don't forget the church

Take the time to stroll through the streets of this pretty little village between Vesoul and Besançon.
