It's not uncommon to find a Monument aux Morts in the immediate vicinity of the local church, which here boasts a very defensive-looking facade – the church's two massive, round towers could easily be imagined as part of a castle's fortifications. These monuments, found in almost every town, still serve an important dual function in the 21st century: They keep the memory of the victims of war and tyranny alive and thus serve as a constant reminder of peace.

Rivers and canals crisscross the country, the latter in particular being a crucial part of the transport infrastructure in earlier times. Later, first rail, and later again trucks, took over the task of transporting goods. In the competition between different modes of transport, they were faster and cheaper than barges – and thus more efficient. When building the artificial waterways, however, it had to be taken into account that differences in elevation always had to be overcome, and so locks are often lined up along the canals – at varying intervals, depending on the local situation. Only with their help was shipping possible.

Beautiful place. Well maintained.

This church looks very unusual with its round towers.

This church has two unusual towers built in 1781 which complement the choir rebuilt 300 years earlier after the Wars of Religion. Recent restorations have saved this beautiful work from ruin.

Today a small village on the Loire; in the 18th century the flood of the Loire in 1707 destroyed the infrastructure of the town of Bonny. The “Grand Chemin” from Paris to Lyon now only serves Bourbonnais and Auvergne, taking away a large part of the city’s reception activity.
