The Town Hall Square is named after former President François Mitterrand, who was mayor of Château-Chinon from 1959 to 1981. An imposing "Niki de Saint Phalle Fountain" faces the Town Hall. It is a monumental work composed of sculptures by Niki de Saint Phalle and an articulated base created by Jean Tinguely. It was created between 1987 and 1988, commissioned by President François Mitterrand.

At the beginning of the route the path is very overgrown, much overhanging greenery. At the hermit's chapel the road is closed. Attempts to cross the bridge are at your own risk. Caution is advised.

Hello, Update of my comment posted on May 2, 2024: This is now the 4th photo that does not correspond to Château-Chinon but to the castle in Chinon in Indre-et-Loire, see my first comment ;-)

Fountain in Château-Chinon

Good morning, I agree for the last four photos taken at Château-Chinon, but for the first it would look more like the Tour du Moulin at Château de Chinon in Indre-et-Loire! https://forteressechinon.fr/decouvert-la-forteresse/son-architecture/la-tour-du-moulin... Well, I did this route by bike in 2022, allow a few days to get there from around Château-Chinon ;-) https://alez.fr/Loireavelo/

Château-Chinon was originally a Roman oppidum. The town was subsequently built around a feudal castle. It is the capital of Morvan. The city reveals some beautiful assets such as the panorama of Calvary, the Notre-Dame gate and the central fountain.
