The main construction phase of the Château de Joussé dates back to the 15th century. Renting a holiday apartment in Joussé can be part of your travel planning.
Culture
The Château de Joussé is partly protected as a historic monument. The protection covers the bas-relief of the entrance double door, the two towers in the northeast and southeast, and the roof structure, with listings dated 30 May 1928 and 3 July 1992.
The Château de Joussé preserves a 17th-century building framed by two towers of the medieval fortified enclosure, with defensive features still intact.
The Fontaine et le lavoir de Joussé are an example of the local heritage. The unusually domed stone fountain preserves the spring and supplies the washhouse.
The Halles de Joussé can be visited freely and are accessible with a pushchair. They date from the 1900 World's Fair in Paris.
Landscape
Joussé lies on the hillside above the upper Clain Valley. Its slopes are characterised by bocage landscape and woodland.
