Allègre : Petite cité de caractère

Picturesque city with two volcanoes
Southern gateway to the Regional Natural Park of Livradois Forez, Allègre is an old feudal city of the XNUMXth century built around a castle whose remains today give the summit its aspect of "Gallows".

The oldest houses of the village are staged on the slopes of Mont Baury facing the imposing volcano of Mont Bar whose beech forest, crater and peat bog are unique in Europe.

The city can be discovered through its charreyrons, narrow streets once used by water carriers. A tour guide made up of 2 circuits takes the walker to the foot of the imposing Porte de Monsieur then to the splendid Place du Marchédial with its 6 mansions.
