Culture and history
The Eaux-Puiseaux church was built between 1853 and 1864 on the colline des Trots between Eaux and Puiseaux. Its contemporary stained-glass windows were created in 2014–2015 by Flavie Vincent-Petit and explore the theme of the origin of the world, “La Création”.
The Eaux-Puiseaux church can be opened by the local municipality upon request. The Écomusée de la Valentaine presents old hand tools and motorized tools. It also reconstructs a former one-room dwelling and rural life around 1900 and earlier.
For planning your own trip, the focus is on finding a holiday apartment to rent in Eaux-Puiseaux.
