Former Saint-Pierre Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

Former Benedictine abbey whose origins date back to 1093, the date when monks settled in this place called 'Casale Malanum'. This name will also give birth in the 15th century to the Casalian congregation, which will bring together a certain number of abbeys of men and women in the region.
The building suffered destruction and damage on several occasions, notably during the Hundred Years' War and the Revolution.
Overall, only the nave and the broken cradle currently remain.
The facade probably dates from the beginning of the 12th century and has beautiful fluted piastres around the door.

Château de Gouers

Highlight • Castle

Even if its architecture seems to retain a still medieval touch, it was, if not entirely rebuilt, at least profoundly altered in the 19th century. It is presented in a main building, one storey high and one level of attic, accosted on one end of an imposing pavilion topped with a very high hipped roof and identical elevation, and, at the opposite, two round towers topped with a conical roof.

Private property, cannot be visited.

Saint-Cyr Church

Highlight • Religious Site

If you're looking for a historical and spiritual hike, you might want to visit the Église Saint-Cyr d'Issoudun, a Catholic church that dates back to the 9th century. The church has a beautiful stained glass window from the 15th century, representing the lives of Saint Cyr and Saint Julitte, as well as six large candlesticks offered by Louis XIV. You can also admire the 17th century statue of the Virgin Mary and the staffs of the gardeners' and winegrowers' guilds. The church is open Tuesday to Sunday.
