History
The Church of Saint-Sauveur in Cléon-d'Andran was built at the very end of the 11th century. The church contains two reused bas-reliefs in the first northern pillar of the nave.
The village of Cléon-d'Andran developed in concentric circles around the church; the oldest houses are located in the centre. At the beginning of the 19th century, the outer ring of fortifications was still present and was later transformed into a ring-shaped boulevard.
Culture
Château de Genas is a private 17th-century estate protected as a historic monument; the protection also covers the surrounding wall, the gate and the garden.
