While other dams have a very specific shape, designed to withstand enormous water pressures, this dam was built in a pyramid shape. The water pressure exerted on this dam is restrained by the weight of the structure itself. It has a twin dam nearby. This dam was completed in 1858 and was one of the most formidable dams of its day.

Settons Lake

Highlight • Lake

If you venture to the edge of the lake you will find a magnificent footbridge, the Passerelle du Chemin du Pélerin, which crosses the lake. It's worth the detour !

Razou railway station

Highlight • Other

I discovered the Razou railway station by passing through the hamlet "Gare de Razou". When I met a resident of the nearby farm, she told me that it was the second hamlet created by the passage of the train called "Le tacot du Morvan" which went from
Chitry-les-Mines / Corbigny to Saulieu...

I read in a book that she showed me "that several craftsmen and merchants immediately settled there. Two inns, Auguste Marchand and Cl. Galin, a grocer Baudin, in 1906 it was the installation of a merchant of materials, Etienne Beaugeon who came from Gibon, a hamlet of Cervon. His father, a lime-burner, sent him lime and also stone which he baked directly at La Gare de Razou. The Beaugeon family remained until in 1922 from where she left for Gibon to take over the family suite. In 1936 we note a wheelwright. Alphonse Chaumien the husband of the station master."

From 18 inhabitants in 1921. 22 in 1931 and 36, then 12 in 1968 and now.......
