Built by the Canons Regular of Saint Augustine, it became the property of the Antonines in 1286. Classified as a Historic Monument since 1846, it remains a major edifice of Dauphiné Romanesque art. In 1557, it curiously resisted the wars of religion despite the destruction of the rest of the Abbey. In 1755 the church became the property of the Hospitallers of Malta and a Parish church under the Concordat. https://www.alpes-isere.com/sit/prieure-de-marnans-124887/ https://www.les-amis-des-antonins.com/le-prieure-de-marnans/

Built by a silk industrialist from Lyon in the second half of the 19th century, the Saint-Siméon-de-Bressieux factory comprises two parts connected by a glass roof. Adjacent to the factory, a large pisé building housed the accommodation for the workers who, coming from afar, lodged on site during the week. This silk mill, established in a rural setting, provided work for nearly 1,000 employees. It operated until 1934. https://www.alpes-isere.com/itineraire/de-soieries-en-chateaux-5335632/ https://patrimoine.auvergnerhonealpes.fr/dossier/IA38000981
