Fortified medieval village built in the 9th century. You can still see the fortified church, the remains of the Roman aqueduct of Gier and the old priory, next to which there is a fountain with ferruginous water.

Garon Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Metal bridge that spans the Garon. Depending on its light, this place becomes very bucolic.

This siphon bridge is part of the Roman Aqueduct of Gier, one of the four aqueducts built to supply Lyon with water. Located on the banks of the Garon, this piece of heritage blends perfectly into the bucolic setting.
