Bousse: Holiday apartments and holiday homes

The Church of Saint Aubin in Bousse combines several historical traces: its oldest part dates from the 12th century, and it was extensively renovated in the 19th century. Its features include statues, a bas-relief, and a high altar with a reredos dating from the period between the 15th and 18th centuries. The statues of the holy bishop, Saint James, and Saint Christopher come from the Château de la Baumerie. The 17th-century bas-relief “Adoration of the Magi” is listed as protected movable cultural heritage.

Those who choose Bousse as a travel destination can combine this choice with the desire to rent a holiday apartment there.
