Touring saignes

The church square in Saignes has kept its authentic aspect. One can see the old fountain nearby, a couple of houses with sculpted tower and doors, that used to be a convent, then converted into a school.

The Sainte-Croix church was built in the 12th century as well as the Notre-Dame du Chateau chapel. The Saignes church is listed as a historical monument since 1921 as well as the chapel of Notre-Dame-du-Chateau.

The chapel of Notre-Dame-du-Chateau is listed as a historical monument, this building is dating from the 12th century and was included in a defense system of which only a wall remains. From the terrace, the view stretches from the Sumene valley, the plain of Vic, the Orgues and the Puy de Bort.

The Janiac wood is located at the foot of a Milhac cliff and enjoys an exceptional micro-relief. An additional path allows to reach the top of the rocks from where a magnificent view faces the Artense.
