An instrumental tower that once served as a lookout post over the valley and the old road that linked Bize to Minerve.
As you wander through the Cesse valley, you may catch sight of a strange rocky mound made of wild stones. Called the Boussecos tower, this structure was once used as a lookout post over the valley and an old road that linked Bize to Minerve. The discovery of a bronze arrow on the site could be proof of the presence of man since the Bronze Age. However, because of its fortress-like appearance, it is more likely that this construction is linked to the Romans. The tower was particularly instrumental in the Visigothic era, around the5th century AD.
