Menhir: This stele dates from the second millennium BC This menhir is curious to say the least, at least for the region. Modest in size (1.35 meters), it wears coarse sculptures representing a character. This menhir is similar to those seen in the south of France and more particularly Corsica. He was later Christianized, carving a cross under the large human head.
The last Wednesday of August: Nature outing: discovery of wild and edible plants. Enjoy an exciting botanical walk to learn how to identify, gather and use the wild flora that surrounds us. Discovery supervised by a CPIE coordinator from the Creusois countries.
Felletin, cradle of the Tapestry, a secular art classified in the intangible heritage of UNESCO, is also one of the oldest towns of the department of Creuse. Its economic boom in the Middle Ages is attributed in particular to the development of many industries. Flour mills, paper mills, sheet mills, dyeing factories and spinning mills allow the town of Felletin to stand out and contribute to the growth of its region. At the gates of the Regional Natural Park of Millevaches in Limousin, the Felletinoise city can be discovered through the streets. In the heart of the city, a rich religious heritage remains to be discovered such as the church of Moutier, its frescoes, the church of the castle, the mansions or the Pont Roby or Pont-Soubre, medieval beauty spanning the Creuse. As the cradle of tapestry, Felletin is a benchmark in terms of know-how on low-smooth weaving looms. It controls the entire production chain, from the wool that is valued by the Filature Terrade to the weaving magnified by the Manufacture Pinton.
Aubusson, beautiful guardian of its art of weaving. The pretty town of Aubusson is known worldwide as the capital of tapestry. From 15th century anonymous to the famous Braque, Le Corbusier, Lurçat, Toffoli… thanks to these artists, the Aubusson tapestry retraces the history of humanity. Six centuries of patience, humility and creativity have made this city the capital of the Basse-Lisse tapestry. The whole chain of trades is represented there: spinner, dyer, weaver, restorer… This secular art is registered in the intangible heritage of UNESCO. Aubusson, "the beautiful" also offers its guests a welcome and quality visits. Built at the confluence of 5 valleys, from the Gallic and Roman times, Aubusson has an unusual architectural heritage, witness to a rich cultural and historical past.
