The small sacred monument we encounter here is a universal symbol of the death of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who was crucified and became human – but at the same time, it is also a symbol of the overcoming of death in the resurrection. Thus, all crosses point us to the Easter perspective of hope – inherent in Christianity – which, through faith in God, firmly trusts in the ability to overcome death and suffering. "We Christians connect our hopes in particular with the graces of heaven. This gives our hope a concrete basis and it arises from faith in God's goodness and love. And we know whom we can thank when our hopes are fulfilled, and whom we can entrust ourselves to when our hopes are not. I believe this certainty is a grace in itself that we are privileged to experience." (Christiane Völkel)

While the ascent of the slag heap is flat and gently uphill in its first part, it is followed by a long, steeper section of walking before reaching the summit. It is clearly stated that descending via any route other than the designated access point is strongly discouraged due to the risk of rockfalls.

very nice walk

Clisson Castle has quite a story to tell: first an impregnable fortress overlooking the Sèvre, then a ducal residence, and finally a romantic ruin. In the 12th century, the powerful lordship of Clisson built this stone castle with highly elaborate defensive architectural systems: arrow slits, gun ports, and slits. A strategic point protecting the border of the Duchy of Brittany in the 15th century, it was abandoned by its owners from the second half of the 17th century onward before being burned down by Republican troops in 1793. But, beyond its grand history, this castle also has a more historic significance! In 1807, François-Frédéric Lemot, creator of the Garenne Lemot estate (a picturesque landscape located on the other side of the river), was captivated by these ruins and purchased it to turn it into an ornamental factory. The château was declared a historic monument in 1924, before being acquired by the Loire-Atlantique department in 1962. Today, visitors can visit it, take a guided tour, or simply experience its history. A stop on the Journey through the Vineyard, it's a stopover during the wine tourism tour of Nantes' wine country, featuring natural sites, heritage features, characterful villages, and unique cellars.
