Monuments to visit Beaujolais

Located a few kilometres from Villié-Morgon, this superb castle deserves a great deal of attention. In the th century it was a defensive fortress, necessary since Burgundy was not far away. From that time remained the square dungeon, the walls, the mass and the towers. In the th century, the Lord of St. Lager became the master and bound to embellish him. In the th century, the Renaissance left a significant mark as evidenced by the inner courtyard and its galleries. Many sculptures adorn its walls. You can visit the courtyard, the kitchen with its huge fireplace, the Gothic chapel and the oubliettes. Don't forget to look in the air: Corcelles has exceptional structures.

The Moulin musée de Ménetreuil, an imposing building on the Sane river, has had several lives. It has now been restored to its 1950s state. It's a fine museographic achievement, providing an insight into the milling world of the time. Millstones, hoppers and grinders are still in place. The fun, interactive tour continues with the theme of water and its importance in human society.
