The Angeac-Charente paleontological site is a fossil deposit known as one of the world's largest dinosaur sites. The Angeac-Charente palaeontological site, discovered in 2008, is located in the gravel quarries on the banks of the River Charente. Initial palaeontological investigations have confirmed the exceptional nature of the site, which dates back 140 million years to the Cretaceous period. The research is being coordinated by palaeontologists from the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle, the universities of Lyon and Rennes, the CNRS and, locally, the Musée d'Angoulême. Near the site, an open-air discovery area has been set up by the Département de la Charente, which owns the site. Visitors can explore the history of the Charente and its inhabitants in the Lower Cretaceous over an area of almost 300 m2. Younger visitors can also play games. This area provides an opportunity to discover the scientific activity on the site, its results and the hypotheses formulated to recreate the Cretaceous ecosystem for the general public. The interpretation platform is open all year round. Since 2010, an excavation campaign has been carried out every summer in July, giving the public an opportunity to take part in guided tours. There are also workshops for young visitors. Further information: patrimoine16.lacharente.fr/sites-du-departement/angeac-charente/

Three sensory gardens highlight fragrant, colourful and graphic essences during a route that invites you to experience the garden in a different way: The "Rust Garden": it concentrates on sounds with a sound portico, a path signalled by walnut shells, plants whose stems rustle in winter like miscanthus ... The "Blue Garden": it invites you to explore the sense of touch with essences that are sometimes soft, sometimes pungent, with graphic forms (yuccas, blue thistles...). The "Red Garden": it is particularly focused on taste with fruit bushes (blackberry brambles, raspberries, redcurrants...) and aromatic plants (fennel, garlic...). An adapted 4-handicapped path provides access to the whole site. From north to south, it runs along the large playground, the gardens, then along the road in the shade of a poplar grove and allows visitors to ford the path. This curiosity probably predates the Roman period, and the current arrangements (a small limestone block staircase for pedestrians to cross) date back to the Middle Ages.

The church of Saint-Vincent is a Romanesque church from the 12th century. Reshaped in the Gothic period and in the 18th century, its richness comes from the portal decorated with frescos of oriental style. It has a massive fortified bell tower, altarpieces and two wooden statues of saints. Its famous cemetery cross, dating from the end of the 15th century, decorated with 12 statuettes representing the Apostles, was listed in 1907. This Romanesque church opens onto a portal, crowned by four vaults, decorated with interlacing. The vaults and capitals have carved motifs. A frieze, composed of facing griffins, decorates the capitals of the small columns framing the opening.

The old medieval church no longer exists, but a presbytery was built in 1670 and in the church of Sainte-Maurice, in 1715, the marriage of Jacques Duranteau, royal notary of Marguerite Portier, is recorded. Reignac has always been a place of residence for notaries, the last of whom, Guy Moraud, stayed for more than 50 years, from 1943 to 1994. In 1751, on July 24th, a clock was installed in the church of Sainte Maurice. In 1869, the construction of the modern church began according to the plans of Mr. Hostein. The consecration of this new church, with a rather slender modern bell-tower, is carried out in 1879.
