Maison de Bois of Mâcon

Highlight • Historical Site

Built between 1490 and 1510, the Maison de Bois is undoubtedly the oldest house in Macon, and most certainly the most famous. Its façade, entirely built of wood, is decorated with a multitude of statues, often of a greedy inspiration. Characters with masks of men and monkeys more or less grimacing, they are standing, sitting, winged, naked or sometimes dressed only in a scarf or a cap. Some, with their outstretched arms, alternately hold the head and tail of a fantastic animal to the real. The Maison de Bois was compared, by the Goncourt brothers, to a gigantic wooden chest that the Mâconnais should only look at as a glimpse, because of the colorful sculptures that adorn its walls. macon-tourism.com/uk/visit-macon/289/Maison-de-Bois

Hotel de Senecé, Mâcon Musée Lamartine 🖼️

Highlight • Other

Houses the Museum for Alphonse Marie Louis de Prat de Lamartine, chevalier de Pratz (21 October 1790 – 28 February 1869), a French writer, poet and politician who was instrumental in the foundation of the Second Republic, abolition of slavery, vegetarianism, and the continuation of the Tricolore as the flag of France. During his term as a politician in the Second Republic, he led efforts that culminated in the abolition of slavery and the death penalty, as well as the enshrinement of the right to work.
Raised by his mother to respect animal life, he found the eating of meat repugnant, saying 'One does not have one heart for Man and one for animals. One has a heart or one does not'. His writings in La chute d’un Ange (1838) and Les confidences (1849) would be taken up by supporters of vegetarianism in the twentieth century. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alphonse_de_Lamartine

The banks of the Saône are designed for walking. You can sit on the stands facing the river, on a bench or on the grass in the shade of a tree. The place is often bustling with events. Spectators come to cheer on the rowing teams from the stands. The banks also host festivals and markets.
