Culture

La Madone is a symbolic site of Saint-Polgues’ local cultural heritage. The Village de Polgues is also one of the town’s historic landmarks: it is a historic site and a listed historic monument in Saint-Polgues.

The parish church of Saint-Polgues stands on the site of a former chapel and contains the tombstone inscription of Antoine and Jean d’Augerolles. In Saint-Polgues, Chocolats Laberge is a manufacturer of chocolate, biscuits and confectionery.

For some travellers, Saint-Polgues as a destination and the desire to find a holiday apartment there go hand in hand.

Nature

The Viaduc de Saint-Polgues is currently closed to the public. The hiking trail at the Viaduc de Saint-Polgues follows the route of a former railway line and then leads to the banks of the Isable. It reaches its highest point at an altitude of 600 metres and offers panoramic views over the Roanne plain. The route begins at the car park below the church.

The Isable is a small river almost 27 kilometres long, whose source lies in the Monts de la Madeleine. The Viaduc de St Polgues is a railway heritage structure spanning the Isable gorges.
