Located in the middle of the forest, the Crâny tower is a very mysterious tower about which we know practically nothing: its origin, its purpose...

According to the inhabitants of Eulemont, this tower was built in the 16th century to house plague victims from the region. However, there are doubts about this statement because this tower is not listed on the 1833 cadastral map. It therefore seems to have been built after 1833, although it is also called the "tour des Pestiférés".

Amance is a small village built around a hill on which a castle was once built. From now on, the bare hill offers a generous view of the neighboring valleys. On either side of the village, the small and large Mont d'Amance (385 and 407 meters above sea level) enjoy equally pleasant views.

Amance is a beautiful village built on top of a hill. It offers a pretty unique point of view on the surrounding plains. This village was a medievial fortress and some houses showcase pieces of history with their doors topped with gothic stones from the XIIIth century. The gigantic Lebanese cedar in front of the church also deserves to be seen. There are 3 climbs to get to Amance : one from Bouxières-aux-Chênes, one from Laître-sous-Amance, one from the SPA (the easiest one). The highest point is at « the antenna », at 405 m.
