SIGHTSEEING
The old church of Briosne and the Chapel of St. Anne: Destroyed during the revolution, the church of Briosne was replaced by the cemetery chapel, the Chapel of St. Anne. Surrounded by a cemetery, the chapel is home to many remarkable statues of wood and earthenware from the 17th and 18th centuries. The building is tiled with a small steeple topped with slate.
