르 몽테 최고의 사이클링 경로

Moulins에서 오는 Veloroute du Bourbonnais (V75)를 타면 Châtillon 입구의 이 작은 공원을 지나게 됩니다. V75에서의 다음 기회는 15킬로미터 떨어져 있습니다.

Many animals find refuge in this imposing oak grove, formerly owned by the Dukes of Bourbon. It's a very pleasant cycle along this shaded road.

The name Fourchaud seems to come from “Fourche”, as the Gallo-Roman road branched off there, coming from Bourges and leading either to Lyon or Clermont-Ferrand.

Directly on the Place d'Allier stands the beautiful fountain with the large column in the middle that can be seen from afar.

Beautiful town church in Moulins

Very beautiful church, right in the center of Moulins. It's worth a visit. The stained glass windows are beautiful. 🤩

This church with the title "SACRE-COEUR" is not dedicated to one of the countless saints or - like many churches in France - to the Virgin Mary and Mother of God ("Notre-Dame"). Here, the choice of patronage was made directly to Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer. The "HEART OF JESUS" veneration, which in earlier times was deeply rooted in popular piety, can look back on a three-and-a-half-century-long history in the Catholic Church: It can be traced back to Saint Margaret Mary Alacoyue (1647 to 1690), a French nun. In this time-honored tradition, this church here in Moulins-sur-Allier was also dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The most famous church – not only in this country, but in continental Europe in general – with this patronage is “SACRE-COEUR de Montmartre” in the French capital (if you are interested, see https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/229994 ).
