Nonnesette Castle, built on this hill overlooking the Couze Valley, was destroyed by Richelieu in the 17th century. You can still see the remains of the towers, gates, and walls, and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.

Issoire

Highlight • Settlement

Issoire is a charming town in Auvergne. The town is now labeled “Most Beautiful Detour of France”. Admire its Saint-Austremoine abbey church which dates from the 12th century, or its Clock Tower. at the bend of an alley you will surely come across a reach which irrigates orchards and gardens in the city center.

View of the old suspension bridge of Parentignat

Highlight • Bridge

This old suspension bridge linked Issoire on the left bank and Parentignat on the right bank. It was the first in 1831 which made it possible to cross the Allier, replacing the Parentignat, Orbeil and Pradeaux ferries. Since 1976 it has been disused and has been replaced by a more modern bridge.
