This location is part of a moderate circular hike starting from Mancey. The path there leads over easily walkable trails through nature and rewards hikers with this wide panoramic view over the French countryside.

The Abbey Church of Saint-Philibert in Tournus is one of the most important examples of early Romanesque architecture in Central Europe. The mighty west facade, with its embrasures and massive walls, is reminiscent of a medieval fortress. The nave features unique, transversely running barrel vaults, which create an extraordinary play of light inside. An ancient crypt lies beneath the choir, while the upper church, dedicated to Saint Michael, is located above the narthex.

The rock, located at an altitude of just under 480 meters, offers a wide panorama over the Grosne valley. In addition to its scenic beauty, the place is historically significant: during World War II, it served as a secret hiding place for young members of the French Resistance.

The municipality has a total of five historic washhouses from the 19th century. They have been lovingly restored by an association of volunteers and reflect the rural cultural history of the region. The structure is made of characteristic local natural stone. In the 19th century, such washhouses not only served for cleaning laundry but were also a central social meeting point for the village community.

The origins of the hilltop castle date back to the 9th and 10th centuries. It is considered an outstanding example of the evolution of military architecture from the High Middle Ages (Carolingian period) to the Wars of Religion in the 16th century, during which it was looted and partially destroyed. Highlights include the ruins of the monumental manor hall from the year 1000 (Logis de l'An Mil) as well as the over 20-meter-high keep (Donjon), which offers a spectacular 360-degree panoramic view over the Grosne valley and the surrounding Burgundian vineyards.

Hello, I couldn't finish the walk because one of the paths was impassable (piles of debris)! Apart from that, the beginning is very pretty!
