There is a discreet local life focused on agriculture and peasant traditions. It’s a simple starting point for those seeking calm, walks and the discovery of a little-visited local terroir.
Heritage and history

The parish church, sober and old, marks the center of the village and bears witness to a slow but continuous local history. Surrounding hamlets preserve rural buildings typical of the Creuse.
