The viaduct that connects Saint-Germain-du-Puy and Cosne is quite impressive. When you pass underneath it along the greenway, you'll realize the scale of the construction.

Priory-rectory dependent on the abbey of Saint-Satur. The church was rebuilt from the end of the 15th century, starting with the tower forming a bell tower-porch, which can be attributed to a certain Hélias Ruellé, while the coat of arms appearing on the keystones of the nave vault indicate the participation of Guillaume de Ménipeny, abbot of Saint-Satur attested until 1527. The date of 1533 is shown on a keystone. The renovation of the church was probably completed around 1535. The first church was built in the 13th century, of which some remains and perhaps the bell tower-porch remain. The current construction dates mainly from the 16th century and represents one of the rare Renaissance religious buildings in this department. The renovation of the choir and the chevet (capitals) and the construction of the sacristy date from the 19th century. Keystone dated 1533 with the Rochechouart coat of arms.

15th century church renovated in the 19th century. This 19th century restoration consisted of the addition of two chapels to the north and south, which thus form two side aisles. The western bay and the bell tower also date from this restoration.

The interior of the church is also remarkable, with its Gothic vaults, stained glass windows and sculptures. The Saint-Aignan church is unique in its kind by the presence of a tribune organ from 1889, built by the Aristide Cavaillé-Coll factory. This organ is considered one of the most beautiful in Europe

magnificent little church, inside which are remains of medieval frescoes as well as furniture from the Sainte Chapelle de Bourges. Remarkable elements also present on the beams. if the church is closed, go and ask for the keys from Mr Turpin, winemaker on the church square.
