Canéjan

The natural environment of Canéjan is a true invitation to the walk. You will find itineraries both for hikers and for cyclists and mountain bikers. Trails and paths lead you to the heart of a flourishing and fragrant nature, offering you a unique panorama on the village and its surroundings. During your walk along the banks of the Eau Bourde, you can admire the mill of Rouillac dating from the nineteenth century. Continuing your route, you will arrive at the castles of Rouillac and Seguin where the vine is always cultivated with the same enthusiasm. A small tasting stop will be welcomed and you will have the opportunity to see the work of the winegrowers in action. Perhaps you will stop in front of the church of St. John the Baptist, where the sarcophagi of the Merovingians are still asleep. If you enter the building, you can admire a baroque altarpiece dating from the late seventeenth century. Close by, you can see a veyrin. According to local history, this stone has healing qualities for children. In the woods of the Eau Bourde stream, you will find beacons to practice orienteering. Finally, you will have the opportunity to go to the Simone Signoret center to entertain you. Throughout the year, the space offers various and varied performances for the pleasure of all.

The fishermen will be delighted to learn that the green lake of Canéjan allows them to satisfy their passion. So do not forget your fishing rods and escarcelles that you can go out for the occasion. The green lake is a 12-hectare lake where fishing is practiced in a sporting way. You can fish pike among others. The place is also very appreciated by walkers and joggers.

Canéjan is one of the cities where sport is honored. You will therefore have at your disposal a whole lot of sports equipment that will allow you to play a game. Basketball, billiards, athletics or handball are just a sample of the sports you can practice. Moreover, sports specially dedicated to seniors are proposed.

Every year, the Simone Signoret Center hosts the Musicabourdons festival. On the program, groups of musicians unlike others play for a crowded audience of the chosen pieces. The originality of this festival lies mainly in musical instruments. You will thus have the opportunity to hear playing banjo, accordion, xylophone or even electric machines and bumblebees. A pleasant moment that music lovers will appreciate, but also the opportunity to discover or rediscover these instruments come from another time that have rhythmed the evenings of our ancestors. The festive atmosphere and convivial will seduce you without any doubt and Canéjan will do the same.

• Être Vivant Ant and her hens - At dawn, a team of hens enter a mobile chicken coop to meet the public. At their side, Ant, a singular character, is there to accompany them. She makes sure that everything runs smoothly so that the chickens can deliver their message. Ant is convinced that they have something essential to share with the public. She doesn't know how it will manifest itself, and she doesn't know when. But what is certain is that it will happen. "Être Vivant" is an atypical creation weaving its way towards a philosophy of simplicity. It invites us to hear other echoes of the world, or indeed echoes of other worlds so close to us, right there on the edge of intimacy. - In partnership with OARA, the artistic office of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. - Ages 6 and up / Running time : 55 min - Cie Au Fil du Vent.
