Beautiful view

Highlight • Other

A bit south of the church under a linden tree, 180 degree view to the east. Unbeatable with evening light!

Very nice climb on the hillside (about 4% average) from Saint Christophe to Sainte Foy with a breathtaking view of the Brionnais bocage. Very wide roadway with beautiful bends to have fun downhill and uphill, good coating. To be done about an hour before sunset to take advantage of the grazing light on the landscape!

It takes place every Wednesday, with the traditional OTC market for beef cattle (under the halls), and the clock market for lean cattle in the building at the back.

Cloister of the Cordeliers Convent

Highlight • Religious Site

Site to discover in ticket coupled with the Benedictine abbey of Charlieu.
The two visits complement each other. This place is worth above all for its magnificent cloister with capitals decorated with animal heads.
