Lock built in 1690, now listed as a Historic Monument and which regained its former appearance in 2022 with the installation of new solid oak doors, following two successive reconstructions of the upstream and downstream heads during the 19th century.

Grignon

Highlight • Settlement

Grignon is a little gem nestled in the heart of Loiret, near the Canal d’Orléans. This quiet village is home to the Auberge des 3 Écluses, a charming place where gourmets can enjoy authentic local cuisine. While strolling around the area, you will discover the Belle de Grignon, a replica of a Berry flute that brings the canal’s maritime past to life. This barge, built in oak by volunteers, offers walks and allows you to discover the region’s peaceful landscapes.
