The Savoyeux tunnel was built during the July Monarchy, in 1837. It facilitates navigation on the Saône. The dimensions of the work are impressive: 642.5 meters long, and only 6.55 meters wide. It passes under the hill and makes it possible to cut a meander in the river, and to avoid a dam located a little higher up.

The Tunnel de Savoyeux is an underground canal that diverts the Saône between two of its meanders near Savoyeux, in Haute-Saône, in France. It was completed in 1843 and made it possible to sail the small Saône to the Saône. It is 642.5 meters long and 6.55 meters wide. It has no path for pulling the boats, so the skippers had to pull the boats with chains attached to the walls of the tunnel. It also has a lock at the end of the tunnel

The Salon borders Autet and once turned the paddle wheels of the village's two mills. Near the old stone bridge, benches and tables have been installed for a rural break. If you feel like swimming, Autet has a beach equipped and supervised on the Saône: follow the Route de la Plage to the south exit of the village.

Locked diversion of the Saône built in two stages, in 1840 and 1880. This reach is one of the areas developed to make the Saône navigable.

The Savoyeux underground, also called the Savoyeux vault, was completed in 1843. It allows boats to pass from the Petite Saône to the Saône. The tunnel is 642 meters long and 6.55 meters wide. There was no towpath in the tunnel, which forced the horses to go around the structure. The boatmen therefore had to move forward by pulling on the chains present along the walls of the underground.
