One of the many wash houses preserved in the area, but much better preserved than average. It is part of a particularly well-preserved complex with the farm, located just across the road, and the mill below. It also offers a beautiful view of the valley.

A pleasant spot located in the heart of the village, where many small curiosities are worth a visit: church, washhouse, gardens. The adjacent parking lots can serve as a starting point for hikes to explore the surrounding area.

In the Middle Ages, Barbezieu served the surrounding villages and hamlets as a market, craft and court location. The area is still largely agricultural, with winegrowing playing a leading role: the small town lies in the south of the Cognac wine-growing region and is part of the Petite Champagne region; Pineau des Charentes, a type of liqueur wine, is also produced here. The Barbezieux breed of chicken (poule de Barbezieux) is known nationwide. Several small and medium-sized industrial companies (food packaging, furniture manufacturing, agricultural machinery) have settled in the industrial areas (zones industrielles) outside the town.

Barbezieux-Saint-Hilaire, located in the heart of the small Champagne, has several advantages for the development of a framework for a pleasant and attractive living. The town has managed to preserve its architectural heritage, the two most important buildings erected such as the castle, which dates from the fifteenth century, and St. Mathias Church built in the eleventh century. The old center of Barbezieux is remarkable for the homogeneity of its building fabric, dating largely from the eighteenth century.

An old windmill in the middle of the vineyards. Without her sails, it's a lovely place to stop and admire her.

The castle of Barbezieux, dominating the plain on the borders of Saintonge and Angoumois is, since the 10th century and throughout the Middle Ages, at the head of a powerful independent châtellenie at the heart of all the power struggles in the region. Between the 11th and 13th centuries, attracted by the protection offered by its influential lords, a large population came to nestle at the foot of the walls. Thus was born the town of Barbezieux, commercial and prosperous at the crossroads of several traffic axes. The end of the 15th century saw its revival thanks to the work of Marguerite de la Rochefoucauld, Lady of Barbezieux. It restores the stately home as well as various buildings in the farmyard. From this work campaign dates the current Archiac Gate and the theater.

Nice rest stop in the middle of the cognac vineyards. This is the grande champagne (the best ground) with the best grapes. Nice to walk to or to ride to with gravel or all terrain bike.
