Lavoûte-sur-Loire Bridge

Highlight • Other

The Lavoûte-sur-Loire bridge offers magnificent views of the river and the surrounding green hills. You're driving on a secondary road, so it's not the best place to stop, but you can still enjoy it!

Old bridge of Brives (ruins)

Highlight • Historical Site

This stone bridge, once an important crossing, is now partly collapsed, but its still visible arches offer a fascinating spectacle. Walking around the ruins, one can admire the tranquil beauty of the river flowing below, surrounded by lush vegetation.
