Chapelle Saint-Justin

Highlight • Religious Site

10th century chapel with a slate roof (redone in 2014).
It was originally a more important building but since the 19th century, only the choir remains.

Very pleasant village, with its stone houses, its washhouse, its proximity to the Ognon river. A haven of peace...

Bellevaux Abbey was a Cistercian monastery, founded in 1120 by Pons de Morimond, near present-day Cirey, in Haute-Saône, France. At that time it was in Franche-Comté. It was removed in 1790 and sold in 1791. Shortly after, the church was demolished. 1795 the buildings were purchased by Jean-Charles Pichegru.

The “castle” site, for its part, hosts events (medieval festivals, markets) in its park thanks to the dynamism of an association seeking to promote the former religious domain.

The old abbey is open to visitors from time to time. Information on 06 33 80 08 12 or 03 84 94 84 98.

Built in the 16th century, the fortified house is made up of buildings defended by loopholes which form a closed courtyard.
This fortified house has now been transformed into a farm. It has retained its keep and its chapel, as well as a mill from the beginning of the 18th century. Very well preserved, it is listed as a Historic Monument.
