Louis Pasteur's house, a listed historical monument, has been preserved in its original condition, just as Pasteur knew it. Visitors can immerse themselves in the scientist's living and working environment.

The former 14th-century collegiate church became a grain exchange during the French Revolution and a power plant in the early 20th century. Today, it serves as a community center.

The natural waterfalls of the Tufs, formed on porous limestone rocks, offer an almost fairytale spectacle with their 15 m waterfall surrounded by lush vegetation.

A dreamy little spot to admire the waterfalls or, when it's really hot, bathe in the icy water of the Cuisance 😍
