Guérigny

Highlight • Other

Guérigny, a former industrial town, benefiting from the surrounding natural resources, iron ore, oak forests and numerous rivers. A factory, totally linked to shipbuilding, became one of the most important in France in the 18th century.

With the opening of the highway linking Nevers to Paris, the city is in a relatively privileged position, and real estate development has developed following this opening to the French capital.

Basilica of Notre-Dame-Et-Sainte-Croix

Highlight • Religious Site

The Notre-Dame-Et-Sainte-Croix Basilica was built around 1070 and consecrated in 1107 by Pope Paschal II. Both the priory and the basilica are in an excellent state of conservation, which makes it possible to discover the evolution of the styles of sculpture of the 11th and 12th centuries.

A major stopover on the Camino de Santiago, the Notre-Dame-Et-Sainte-Croix basilica can be visited free of charge from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. (7 p.m. in summer), except in the case of religious services.

La Charité-sur-Loire, town of art and history, whose 900-year-old bell tower is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Located along the Loire and accessible via a stone bridge built in 1520, Charité-Sur-Loire is a sloping town, made up of alleys lined with old houses. Its Notre-Dame Church and its priory housed 200 monks during the great Cluniac era.

Tigran Chapel

Highlight • Other

The Chapel of Tigran takes its name from Tigrane, King Arsacide of Armenia from 95 to 94 BC.

This chapel was transformed in 1965 by its owners, in order to look both inside and out like an Armenian religious building. A marble plaque commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Armenian genocide perpetrated by the Turkish government.
