The ruins of the feudal castle of Bressieux were classified as Historic Monuments in 1904. Many artists were inspired by it, the most famous of which was Jongkind who produced a watercolor in 1879 which is currently in the Louvre.

The former abbey church of Saint-Antoine was built in the 14th century on the site of a previous Romanesque church. With its dimensions of 61 meters long, 32 meters wide and a 22 meter high nave, it is on a par with the great Gothic cathedrals. In 1840, the church of the Abbey of Saint-Antoine-l'Abbaye, the mother monastery of the Antoniter order, was included in the list of monuments (Base Mérimée) in France as a monument historique.

Not to be confused with the other Col de la Madeleine in Savoie. This is a much smaller and gentler climb. The views at the top are nice nonetheless.

Small fishing pond in the heart of the municipal forest of Montrigaud offers a very bucolic setting. This place is ideal for taking a short break. A shaded picnic area is located right next to the pond. You will find, along the pond, information panels on the surrounding flora and fauna.
