The 13th century castle is an excellent example of castles from this era. It is currently undergoing preservation work so that visitors to the castle can enjoy it for many years.

Charming little village with a pond to the south, accessible on foot, by a short hiking path, "le chemin des randonneurs".

Small quiet wood with pretty asphalt roads and paths in the middle of the forest.

Very beautiful and atypical church, located on the secondary road to Santiago de Compostela and on the Francette bike. Large lawn with trees, ideal for a short break.

Coudray-Salbart is an old 13th century fortified castle of which well-preserved ruins remain. The site can be visited, but it is advisable to book the guided tour in advance on the site www.coudraysalbart.fr.
