In the heart of La Châtre stands the Église Saint-Germain. Graceful, but with a past that has literally collapsed. In 1896, the bell tower collapsed, dragging the entire church down with it. What you see now is a rebirth in stone. Step back in the square for a moment, look up at the new tower, and imagine the chaos of that time. Inside, the stained-glass windows bathe the light in warm hues, as if the church itself is trying to say, "I'm here again."

The path that leads to Pierres Jaumâtres, a must-see in Creuse, begins at the car park. At the top of Mont Barlot, around forty large granite blocks stand in an improbable balance. The site is the subject of numerous legends: place of sacrifice or even altar of the Druids. When using the trail, take care to slow down when approaching other users.

This town was built around the tower and the church. Its church with its painted dome and the tower which offers an incredible view are the attractions of this peaceful hamlet. In addition, it is possible to get water from the fountain on the church square.
