Châtel is intimately linked to the history of the Via Cluny paths. This quiet little village has housed a large religious community. Marked by the presence of the Benedictines of Gigny from 974 to 1359, Manassès III de Coligny made Châtel a Benedictine priory linked to the abbey of Gigny. The abbey of Cluny then named "the prior of Châtel", while the church of Saint-Etienne de Châtel became the seat of a vast parish.

The Roman roads of Revermont make it possible to make the connection between various cities and nearby ancient agglomerations (Bourg-en-Bresse, Coligny, Lons-le-Saunier). Difficult to date and little studied, this building was the subject of a vast restoration campaign in the 1980s carried out by volunteers, which today allows us to walk in the footsteps of our ancestors. You can discover the traces left by the passage of wheels in the cobblestones and enjoy the shaded path that leads to the Montagna belvedere.
