In the heart of a region with a rich historical heritage, enchanted by the banks of the Auron and the Berry canal, Dun (from the Celtic name dunos, meaning high place) was a Gallic fortified town and the third largest in Berry. Today, it has a population of 400. The keep, rebuilt by Philippe Auguste at the end of the 12th century, has now disappeared, but important elements of the enclosure remain, including a town gate topped by a high 15th-century belfry. In the 19th century, the town benefited from the development of metallurgy thanks to the extraction of abundant iron ore, but the cessation of this activity in the 1870s dealt it a fatal blow.
