Things to see and do

The Vonges gunpowder factory: It was founded in 1691 by Louis XIV who wanted to have enough gunpowder for the artillery, and without importing it. Vonges was then only a very small village. The blowing snow extended over 16 hectares along the Bèze. It included two powder mills, a granary, a winter dryer and a refinery. Today, the powder mill is a private enterprise covering 307 hectares.
