The castle of the Dukes of Bourbon was built in 1370 and then restored by Louis II of Bourbon. He made it his favorite residence. From the square, below, where you can have a coffee at the brasserie, you have a superb view of the castle.

There are two beautiful listed 13th century monuments in this small Bourbon town with a feudal past: the Romanesque church of Notre-Dame and the donjon de la Toque, the remains of an old castle. Alain-Fournier and Georges Sand talk about it with tenderness in their novels.
