At the exit of Saint Denis de Jouhet, stands a very strange old brick chimney 15 meters high! At the foot, you can see a building that housed coal-powered pumps that were used to pump water drawn from the stream below to the station located less than 1 km away. The water thus arrived at the water tower of the "Jouhet" station and was used to power the steam engines. On old postcards, you can see the chimney and the roof of the building in their environment at the time as well as the station opened on July 1, 1906 on the line from La Châtre to Guéret.

On the road between Tranzault and Fougerolles, you can discover this pretty, renovated and maintained dovecote in the middle of the fields. It was part of the feudal Château de Fromenteau (15th century), of which nothing remains, and has around 1,400 niches.

Located on a rocky outcrop, the castle of Cluis-Dessous occupied a strategic position. In the 12th century, the keep is the oldest part of the building. The curtain wall, slightly more recent (12th-13th century), is typical of Plantagenêt architecture. The house, which dates from the 14th and 15th centuries, is only partially preserved.
