Region of art and history

In the winter of 2008, the eleven member communities of the CC Saône Vallée were the first landscape in the Ain department to be awarded the Region of Art and History (French: pays d'art et d'histoire ). At that time, the community association already possessed the competencies affected by such an award, such as the maintenance of architectural and industrial monuments, promotion of cultural activities and operation of the cross-community music school in Trévoux. The historical aspects of the region between Saint-Bernard and Parcieux begin with the Gallo-Roman settlement and the high medieval fortifications of the Lords of Villars on the border between the Holy Roman Empire and the Kingdom of France. Trévoux is of particular importance as the former capital of the Principality of Dombes. Numerous castles and churches from the Middle Ages as well as farmhouses from the time of the Ancien Régime and secular buildings from the 19th century are inscribed as monument historique .
