Located on the left bank of the Aronde Valley, Braisnes is a site of very ancient origins, once crossed by the secondary Roman road from Champlieu to Roiglise. The church's dedication to Saint Stephen is another sign of the site's antiquity. Destroyed during the First World War, the previous church, apparently rebuilt late in the 1910s, had no particular features. The current one is a small, carefully constructed but largely unoriginal building. A neo-Romanesque pastiche, it simply comprises a single nave and a semicircular apse. On the façade, the small portal topped by a gable opens beneath a triplet of windows. Inside, pilasters aligned with the buttresses house the transverse beams of the wood and plaster vault and divide the nave into four bays. https://www.eglisesdeloise.com/monument/braisnes-eglise-saint-etienne/

Please note that the St Martin quarries are closed to the public, even though they are located on a hiking trail. The new owner has recently installed cameras for ticketing purposes...

The Château de Boulogne is unlike any other. With an architecture drawing its inspiration from history and esotericism, it was born in the imagination of Charles de Boulogne (1864 - 1940), a rich Belgian landowner who purchased the title of Count and who undertook the construction of the castle in 1896 on the remains of the Lancry family castle. For 25 years, he put all his energy and his fortune into creating his 'Great Work', a philosopher's residence, a castle of Mysteries which unfortunately was largely destroyed during the Battle of Matz in 1918. For his fellow citizens, Count Charles de Boulogne was the builder of a spooky residence. An incomprehensible man, a little crazy, an “enlightened person”? And yet the sentence he had engraved on the portal gives us the key: “Sortis patiens esto nulli clauderis honesto” ("Be patient, nothing is closed to an honest man")
