Whoever passes through the fortified gate undertakes a real journey through time through 1000 years of French architecture and knight history.

This location is part of a moderate circular hike starting from Mancey. The path there leads over easily walkable trails through nature and rewards hikers with this wide panoramic view over the French countryside.

The classic ascent from Mancey is considered a tough short climb in Category 3. Over a distance of 2.2 kilometers, 166 meters of altitude must be overcome. The average gradient is 7.55%, with peak sections of up to 14%. The path junction leads to various hiking trails and gravel paths through the wooded and wine-rich hilly landscape of the Mâconnais.

The rock, located at an altitude of just under 480 meters, offers a wide panorama over the Grosne valley. In addition to its scenic beauty, the place is historically significant: during World War II, it served as a secret hiding place for young members of the French Resistance.

The origins of the hilltop castle date back to the 9th and 10th centuries. It is considered an outstanding example of the evolution of military architecture from the High Middle Ages (Carolingian period) to the Wars of Religion in the 16th century, during which it was looted and partially destroyed. Highlights include the ruins of the monumental manor hall from the year 1000 (Logis de l'An Mil) as well as the over 20-meter-high keep (Donjon), which offers a spectacular 360-degree panoramic view over the Grosne valley and the surrounding Burgundian vineyards.
