Digoin Canal Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Digoin aqueduct is both a curiosity and a rarity. This 243-meter bridge allows barges to pass over the Loire River. It is also open to pedestrians and cyclists, who are asked to walk alongside their bicycles during the crossing. This remarkable structure was designed in the 1880s and 1890s. It allows the Loire Lateral Canal to connect with the Canal du Centre a little further downstream.

Digoin Canal Bridge (Pont Canal de Digoin)

Highlight • Bridge

The canal is a water bridge over the Loire. The structure is fascinating because of its rarity. At the same time, it is a pedestrian and cyclist crossing that offers a beautiful view.

Basilica of Paray-le-Monial

Highlight • Historical Site

The Romanesque basilica of Paray-le-Monial is contemporary with Cluny Abbey since it was consecrated in 977, and allows us to imagine the splendor of its great neighbor, almost entirely destroyed during the French Revolution. Its orange-yellow limestone stones add to the richness, majesty and simplicity of the place. It is the most visited building in the Saône-et-Loire department.
