Marcigny is a historic French small town in the historical region of Burgundy. It has just under 1,700 inhabitants and is picturesquely located in the southwest of the Saône-et-Loire department, in the vast river landscape of the Loire. It is nestled in the gently rolling Brionnais, which is known for its Romanesque art, pastures, and the famous white Charolais cattle. The town developed from 1050 onwards around an important Benedictine priory.

In this abbey, the eco-hamlet of Bénisson-Dieu meets to sing vespers at least once a week. A little extra: they sing in a unique medieval Gregorian chant! Not to be missed!

Very pretty 11th century church with its polychrome interior decoration and its bell tower located above the choir. It has a modern nave and an old choir. The dark and too narrow nave was replaced in 1837 by the current nave and its aisles.

The site is clean and very well maintained. Easy parking on site and several reasons to go there: the greenway, the Museoparc du Marinier with its mini golf, its water games and its barge-museum and the restaurants with terrace overlooking the port.

The port of Briennon has been converted into a pretty marina. It is located on the Roanne to Digoin canal just a few hundred meters from the Loire.
