Option 1: Guided tour of the medieval city of Châtillon-sur-Chalaronne
Departing from the Tourist Office, discover the architectural riches of Châtillon-sur-Chalaronne. From the Place du Champ de Foire to the Porte de Villars, passing by the Maison Saint Vincent de Paul and the 15th century Halles, you will stroll through the cobbled streets and over the flower-filled bridges. You can admire the painted decorations on certain facades or the beauty of the flowers. A 1km walk punctuated by numerous stops where the history of this charming city will be revealed to you.
Option 2: The Royal Monastery of Brou
In Bourg-en-Bresse, this masterpiece of flamboyant Gothic art shines as much for its intricate stonework as for the story of Marguerite of Austria at the dawn of the Renaissance.
