  • Quemigny Castle

A stately tower from the 13th century forms the core. Two round towers in the forecourt are extensions from the 16th century. The original dovecote has been preserved in one, and elegant living rooms in the other. The main building dates from the 18th century. The castle is privately owned. It has been a listed building since 1975.

In Quemignerot there is an old wash house ( Lavoir ) which has recently been restored. The 13th century chapel is also interesting.
