Travel Guide Charentay

This charming village is built around a pretty Romanesque church and shelters the beautiful remains of the fortified castle of Arginy of which the keep of the XIIIth century remains. It is said that a Templar treasure is hidden there... The other curiosity of the village is a 35-meter high tower that emerges in the middle of the vineyards. Nicknamed the "Mother-in-law's Tower", it was built at the end of the 19th century by a mother-in-law who wanted to keep an eye on her son-in-law, whose reputation was that of a Don Juan! While walking around the village, one should not miss a small Romanesque wonder, the Saint-Pierre chapel, humbly nestled in the vineyards.
