This superb Renaissance-style castle was the birthplace of Marshal Mac Mahon, one of the first presidents of the Republic. The setting will not leave you indifferent.

The Hottinguer wells and their Malakoff-type tower made it possible to extract coal at a depth of 618 meters. They are among the deepest wells in France. The traction system, an atmospheric tube, required high surface installations, hence the tower. In 1910, the addition of a power station supplied villages with electricity as far as Autiun and the Côte de Beaune.

An astonishing castle surrounded by its moat and enveloped in its gardens. You can visit the castle to soak up its history and its wine! But not before you finish your race ;)
