The village of Breuil-sur-Couze is located at the confluence of the rivers Allier and Couze d'Ardes.
Formerly protected by ramparts, the village had a feudal castle, replaced in the 17th century by the present castle.
The church of Saints Como and Damien, also known as the Church of Our Lady, as well as the Madonna, a monument overlooking the village consisting of a statue of Our Lady of Peace and an altar, testify to the religious past of the commune.
A distillery (initially grape and then beet) was built around 1860 in Breuil-sur-Couze. The building now houses the company Hydroxydase, which operates the Marie Christine spring, discovered in 1908 in the commune and whose sparkling water is known for its healing and therapeutic properties.
Formerly a vector of the local economy, the former quay of Breuil-sur-Couze station is no longer used as such, but rather as a gathering place.
The commune has a béal, a derivation of the Couze, which had been created to operate the mill near the castle. At the time it also fed the fountains and wash houses of the commune.
There was once a leprosarium in Breuil-sur-Couze, on the edge of Allier.
The commune also counts some crosses of the way to the village entrances and to some crossings.
