Presentation of: Circuit a travers les siecles

The tour begins with a visit to the Indian camp "Les Tipis du Bonheur de Vivre". Next, you'll take the Pissot path, arriving at the tower of the same name and enjoying the view over the lake.

After crossing the Place des Anciennes Halles, take the Rue de la Douve. The moat, which has now disappeared, once surrounded a Motte castle.

La Motte est is on your left. This is where Claude Chappe's first telegraphic tests took place.

Then continue to the climbing wall. Continue along this path until you reach the village church.

Following the signs for St Denis d'Orques, follow the blue signposts from la Bêcre to la Fosse and then along the old railway line to the village (known as the Promenade des Anglais).

Return to Brûlon, passing in front of the Priory, then the church of St Pierre and St Paul.

Take the "chemin des Vignes" and return to your starting point.
