This café belongs to the Auberge de Crissay, but you can stop even if you are not staying at the establishment. The view is magnificent! https://www.logishotels.com/fr/hotel/logis-auberge-de-crissay-254579?partid=1535

Ruins of two buildings. The castle, dating from the 15th century, only has scattered remains, while the collegiate church, built in the 16th century, has preserved majestic ruins.

Here you will find the ruins of the collegiate church and the 16th century castle. The Renaissance style church was built between 1510 and 1524. It was here that Charles VII met twice with the Great Council to decide on the last campaign against the English which ended the War of Hundred years. A fascinating place to visit.

The Notre-Dame d'Avon-les-Roches church, built in 1120, has been listed as a historical monument since 1908. To visit the interior of the Notre-Dame church, you must collect the keys from the town hall located just next door. This 12th century church was extensively rebuilt and extended later in the 13th century. The upper layers of the western facade are Gothic, perched on the lower part, the remains of which are those of the Romanesque building.
