A discovery tour was conducted for families (children from 6 to 12 years old)! Booklet in PDF version: www.bourgenbressetourisme.fr/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/epf_seillon_parcours_familles.pdf On the outskirts of Bourg-en-Bresse, this state-owned forest, created by the Carthusian monks, covers 630 hectares. An exceptional natural area with century-old trees, this oak grove managed by the Office national des forêts is home to a wide variety of flora and fauna. Main tree species: Oak (71%), Hornbeam (15%), Beech (9%), other hardwoods (5%). An ancient forest Seillon was first mentioned in 1084, in a document establishing the boundaries of the Saint-Pierre de Brou priory. In 1131, the priory of Seillon was founded, returning to the Carthusian order in 1170. Ten years later, the Sires de Bâgé, then those of Saix and Coligny, donated the immense forest surrounding the priory to the monks. In November 1789, the forest was made available to the Nation and became state property. The Carthusian monastery was sold in 1791 and converted into an orphanage in the 19th century. Quality oaks. The Seillon state forest is rich in quality sessile oaks that supply the local and regional market. Seillon oaks have always been renowned for their quality, and were used to build the roofs of the Monastère Royal de Brou. An environmental role The forest limits the risk of flooding in urbanized areas in the event of flooding by playing an important retention role in relation to the La Reyssouze river. Its "buffer" role enables water to be stored during rainy periods and gradually released during dry periods. The Seillon state forest is home to typical lowland oak fauna. The main mammals are roe deer, wild boar, foxes, badgers, martens and hares at the edges. Among the diversity of birds, we note the presence of all woodpecker species, including the black woodpecker and the pileated woodpecker, emblematic species of ancient oak forests. Among insects, the most symbolic is the kite lucanus, a species attached to old oaks. Flora includes lily of the valley, anemone and periwinkle! Welcoming all publics Located to the south of Bourg-en-Bresse, the wooded territory of the Seillon state forest is a vast green lung for the urban area. The forest's lack of topography, numerous access points and public facilities make it accessible to the widest possible public. It is very popular with local residents, who come here to recharge their batteries, play sports or stroll through the centuries-old oaks and the relaxing atmosphere of the undergrowth. Its natural values and its capacity to welcome the public have led the Ain department to label the Seillon state-owned forest a "Sensitive Natural Area". A range of leisure facilities are available to suit all tastes: a fitness trail, an educational forest discovery trail for children and families, hiking, horse-riding and mountain-biking trails, a Randocroquis drawing and photography trail, playgrounds and picnic areas. A "voie verte" links the forest to the Bouvent water sports centre... a great way to go green! Accessible by bike and on foot from Bourg-en-Bresse via the Bouvent leisure park! 3 educational trails dedicated to children, and its sensitive natural area, inaugurated. A discovery trail has been created for families (children aged 6 to 12)!

The apothecary of Bourg-en-Bresse is composed of three rooms: a laboratory which has remained intact, a back room and a dispensary, with magnificent Louis XV woodwork housing an impressive collection of earthenware and bottles. It was the pharmacy of the old hospital, the Hôtel-Dieu, from the end of its construction (1782-1790) until 1963. Its laboratory is a remarkable room, as it is nowadays very rare to be able to visit one. It allows you to immerse yourself in the chemistry of the past centuries: copper stills, mortars, cast iron furnace (19th century), press, all kinds of pewter... The back room reveals the first earthenware pots, canon pots or chevrettes, as well as a library containing old books, including one from the 17th century. The oak woodwork of the dispensary gives the room a cozy character. Some parts are carved to receive exactly the corresponding ceramics, the famous "watch pots", three of which are inscribed with the famous Theriac. A journey into the pharmacopoeia of past centuries through more than a thousand containers! Distillates, powders, ointments, pills, syrups, oils, dried plants...

Some of the exhibits are quite remarkable, such as an 1878 typewriter, a Braille typewriter and a Chinese typewriter with 3,000 Mandarin characters. An opportunity to discover the technical progress made from the 19th century to the 1990s, when micro-computing put an end to mechanography. Visitors can use some of the machines.

Situated on major communication routes, Bourg-en-Bresse has evolved with the times and events. Its rich past can be seen in the medieval houses, town houses and monuments, parks and toponymy of the city center. In Gallo-Roman times, "Burgus" became "Bourg", and distinguished itself as a defensive outpost of the capital of the Three Gauls, Lugdunum (Lyon). But it was above all in the Middle Ages that the town took advantage of its geographical position and developed a sustained commercial and craft activity. Even today, you can still admire some thirty houses belonging to wealthy merchants or craftsmen of the period, the oldest of which dates back to the 14th century. The end of the Middle Ages saw the construction of the co-cathedral of Notre-Dame, today the "grande dame" of the town center. A legend dating back to the 13th century tells of the Black Madonna. Later, wealthy aristocrats embellished the town with beautiful mansions, including the Hôtel de Meillonnas, now transformed into a contemporary art center (H2M). As the industrial revolution took hold, Bourg-en-Bresse became a modern city, with its grand avenue Alsace Lorraine and Haussmann-style buildings linking the railway station to the city center. Today, the city continues to move forward, giving pride of place to environmentally-friendly means of transport.

The collegiate church of Notre-Dame, the stuff of medieval legend, occupies a central place in the city of Burgundy, and particularly in the hearts of its inhabitants. Construction began in the late Middle Ages, but was not completed until 190 years later! Bourg-en-Bresse parish church. The exact name of this church is "collegiate co-cathedral of Notre-Dame de l'Annonciation". The term "co-cathedral" was officially coined in 1992, to define Notre-Dame as the secondary seat of the bishopric of Belley-Ars, which returned to Bourg in the 1970s after more than 4 centuries on the other side of the département. However, it was to be a cathedral that Notre-Dame was erected in the early 16th century, but the vagaries of history and the various conflicts between Francis I and Charles V decided otherwise, and Notre-Dame definitively lost its cathedral title in 1534. The beginnings of the construction are rather vague, and although work was certainly initiated at the end of the 15th century, 1505 is the official date, supported by a bull from Pope Julius II of the same year. The aim was to enlarge and embellish a Romanesque pilgrimage chapel on this site, already dedicated to the Virgin and known as the Chapelle Sainte-Marie de Bourg, whose origins date back to the 13th century. Legend has it that a shepherd found an icon of the Virgin Mary on this spot, which, despite being deposited in the parish church of the day (located just a stone's throw from the center of the town at the time) systematically returned to the place of its discovery! It was as if Mary wanted to show the Burgundians of the Middle Ages that she wanted to be venerated here. The healing of Count Aymon of Savoy, who came to implore Sainte-Marie de Bourg, only strengthened Burgers' devotion to the woman who was to become their patron saint. In the 19th century, a chapel to the right of the choir was completely refurbished and dedicated to the Virgin Mary, who became the Black Virgin over the years and is now venerated as Notre-Dame de Bourg, the town's patron saint. Her wardrobe has expanded over the centuries, and her vestments and the colors with which she is adorned depend on the liturgical season. Many of the church's furnishings are remarkable, such as the triptych donated by Nicolas Chichon (1523), the choir stalls (18th century), the Black Madonna altarpiece (19th century), Armand Calliat's white marble high altar adorned with enamel and gilded bronzes (19th century), Fyot's pulpit (1760), the great organ (17th-20th centuries), and the large choir windows by Eugène Oudinot (19th century)... Don't miss the hanging keystone and the tetramorph overhanging the choir, the Saint-Crépin et Saint-Crépinien stained-glass window (1530), the only original stained-glass window, and the contemporary stained-glass windows (1920s and 1960s). The bell tower, decapitated during the Terror, was rebuilt in reinforced concrete by departmental architect Tony Ferret, between 1909 and 1911. To mark the occasion, the belfry was fitted with 4 clock dials and a set of 23 bells; 17 bells from the Paccard company in Annecy were added to the 6 bells already in the belfry, most of which were connected to an automatic carillon still in operation today. The entrance portal is crowned by a wood-carved medallion depicting the Annunciation (under which the 15th-century cathedral was erected), surmounted by a conch in which is set a statue of the Virgin and Child by Coysevox (1855).

This cool, green spot is accessible via a path below the village. The Vallière, which feeds the waterfall, rises in the hamlet of La Grande Fontaine and flows into the Reyssouze after crossing a 30-metre-high rock face. The river receives water from the "Bief de Veau", which originates at the "source des 30 Chiens", under the Côte des Vignes, and from the Tréconnas stream, which originates at the Chantemerle spring. The Vallière has a large, regular flow, and its course used to include three mills spread over almost a kilometer: - The Vallière mill, downstream from the waterfall, existed as early as 1349 and was demolished in 1920. Its stones were used to build the Bouvard cookie factory in the center of Ceyzériat. - Moulin de la Roche, just above the waterfall, which came into operation in 1792. - Moulin des Billets, built in 1836 above the waterfall On the trail of Jehu's Companions... In Les Compagnons de Jéhu, published in 1857, the great writer Alexandre Dumas set an important scene of his novel in a small valley where the Vallière flows, below the church in Ceyzériat. There, in a cave, the writer sets a deadly battle between a regiment of dragoons in Bonaparte's pay and the Compagnons de Jéhu led by their leader Morgan. The Vallière River It rises in the hamlet of Grande Fontaine and flows into the Reyssouze after crossing a 30-metre-high rock barrier: the Vallière waterfall. Pont de la Roche Bridge spanning the top of the Vallière waterfall, and former fortified village gate. This site has been awarded the Espace Naturel Sensible (ENS) label by the Ain department.
