The Tallenay washhouse, built in the 19th century, once served the village's washerwomen. Fed by a spring, it is typical of the region's utilitarian architecture, with its gable roof and stone basins.

Perched north of Besançon, Châtillon-le-Duc overlooks the Ognon Valley from its rocky outcrop. Here you'll discover the remains of a former 19th-century military fort, built on the ruins of a feudal castle.

The most common washhouses were built in the 19th century. Their development was encouraged by the prefects to improve public health. Multiple water points, they are both a washhouse, a watering hole for livestock and a water provider for households.

A beautiful view from Fort de la Dame Blanche (also known as Fort de Chailluz). Be careful of the cliff, the fort is also a reserved military zone. ============= A nice view from fort of the Dame Blanche (also known as the fort of Chailluz).
