At this time of year, what "calm"! And what beauty!

A small bridge to cross the river. A great place to take some pictures/portraits. Nothing more.

"A hike from the town of the commune allows you to reach the waterfall. The Auzelle stream flows into the Chalamont, forming a pretty 10m high waterfall in the woods. Magnificent site! (Combraille Auvergne Tourisme). A beautiful waterfall easily accessible from the road. The path is clean, as are the small wooden bridges. The proposed route is pleasant, in the heart of a small forest, while following the river.

The construction of the first castle of Pionsat dates back to the end of the 14th century, in the heart of the Hundred Years' War. It is probably the work of Guy Aubert, lord of Pionsat (and nephew of Pope Innocent VI), who applied Charles V's edict of 1367 on the fortification of the kingdom, to strengthen the defenses of the Auvergne against English raids. Over the centuries, the castle took the form of an enclosure with several towers (perhaps five) and a keep according to a fairly detailed plan of which there are still remains, in particular part of the main building and a tower. Since 1482, and the purchase by Jacques de Chazeron, first butler of King Louis XI, of the stronghold of PIONSAT where he built a square tower with a Gothic door in the courtyard.

The current Saint-Bravy church in Pionsat is quite recent. On the other side of the church square was an older church. This Romanesque church of Pionsat is only known to us from two lithographs. Because its strength was seriously doubted in the mid-19th century, it was decided to build a new one on land acquired by the municipality in August 1859. The current one was built in a neo-modern church using stones from the old church. Romanesque style and where the bell “Anne de Chazeron” was installed, presented in 1569 by Gilbert de Chazeron, lord of Pionsat and to whom the virtue of warding off storms is attributed. The Saint-Bravy Church was consecrated in August 1888.
