Found somewhat by chance and at a very affordable price, this hotel restaurant is a superb stopover for a bike ride!

The Church of Saint-Christophe de Le Pin The Church of Saint-Christophe de Le Pin was built in the 18th century (after 1759). Entrance is via a bell tower with a porch, on which a recently restored, painted sundial from 1832 contrasts beautifully with the clock above. The four pillars of the entrance portal support an entablature. The single-aisled nave opens onto a transept with a semicircularly vaulted chancel; the walls are partly made of rammed earth. Inside, there are four paintings in the transept and chancel. They depict a Pietà, the Assumption of the Virgin, the Presentation of the Child, and the Release of Saint Peter from Herod's Prison by an Angel. The last three paintings appear to be by the same artist.

Here, you enter a sensitive natural area for a 1-kilometer trail marked with four stations to discover the area's remarkable flora and fauna. A pleasant way to connect the two shores of Lake Paladru, between Paladru and Montferrat.

Simple

The small rest area created here, with its very unusual design, invites passersby not to roll by carelessly: Behind the backrest of the bench rises a remarkable piece of craftsmanship: on one side, a flower stem bearing an unfolded blossom; and from the other, a bee flies towards it. An original idea, and rightly documented here several times with photos.

Here we encounter three stone cubes stacked on top of each other, each smaller than the one below it. The gray cubes each have a white field in the center of their sides, with a cross carved into it, painted blue and standing out against the gray/white background. This construction forms the basis for the present small sacred monument: above it rises a radiant gold figure of the Madonna. From this prominent position, the Virgin Mary – venerated in France almost always under the title "Notre-Dame" ("Our Lady") – gazes far into the country, and has done so for more than 120 years. @Rainer N. has already explained the date and reason for its construction in his short post.

The abbey basilica was rebuilt starting around 1490 and completed in 1510 by Bernardino Zaccagni. The famous artist Correggio left his mark on this church. He created five frescoes there, including the lunette with Saint John and the Eagle (1520), which is considered the first to be created. The frescoes, the dome depicting the Ascension of Christ, the decoration of the drum and pendants, and the frieze of images that extends around the entire interior perimeter are all artistic treasures worth discovering. The Way of St. James is very well documented in several places in the church.
