Spectacular and original. A must-see.

Excellent view of the Chateau de Passy! Passy-mal! 🤣

As in probably every other profession, there are a few so-called “black sheep” among the many honorable millers in the milling trade. The popular children's book author Otfried Preußler tells the following short episode in “The Flight into Egypt”: “And they didn't even get all the way to Klostergrätz that evening, but there was a mill on their way, the monastery mill - they stayed there until the next morning. At first the monastery miller was almost shocked when the k.k. Gendarmerie knocks on his door: There had been a certain dispute with a customer last week about a few sacks of milling material which had disappeared in the mill here in a completely inexplicable way […] but it could have been that he had been reported for it anyway – and now they’re coming to pick him up… then of course all the disputed milling sacks had immediately fallen from his mind, the monastery miller, just as [sergeant] Hawlitschek was now simply asking him for a place to stay for the night.”

Impressive remains from a time when river transport was essential. This gigantic work of art, designed by Henri IV and the Duke of Sully around 1597, in order to connect the Mediterranean to the Ocean and the Channel by bringing together the Loire and Seine rivers using a canal. The work, led by engineer Hugues Cosnier, lasted 38 years and required 6,000 workers to overcome the 24-metre drop in altitude of the hill.

Vestige of a work which ultimately had very little use (I invite you to read the panels at the bottom, very informative)

Before the 14th century Maligny had a castle surrounded by moats with a chapel. The village is structured around these buildings with the expansion of the city, shops, housing and infrastructure.

The seven locks located here on the Briare canal gave their name to the village in 1978. Initiated by Henri IV, this spectacular work was built during the 16th century. This allows the canal which connects the Seine and the Loire to overcome 24 meters of difference in height. From now on, the new canal route, established since 1887, goes around the hills.

Connecting “de Loire en Seine”, two river basins by a canal with locks fed by a reservoir reach on the watershed line, such was the audacious project conceived at the end of the 16th century. by the engineer Hugues Cosnier, encouraged by Henri IV and his minister Sully. The construction of the canal - the current Briare canal - began in 1604: twelve thousand workers worked there, protected from the threats of the large landowners by six thousand troops. An exceptional work of art, consisting of six, then seven locks adjoining, made it possible to overcome a drop of 24 meters. Commissioned in 1642, they operated without interruption until 1887, when a new route was opened around the hill, with six spaced locks, adapted to the new Freycinet gauge. The Seven Locks of Rogny remain an astonishing work of art.
