Baptized "the little Auvergnat Versailles" by regionalist writer Henri Pourrat, the Château de Parentignat, a member of La Demeure Historique Privée, La Route Historique des Châteaux d'Auvergne and La Toscane d'Auvergne, features vestibules, dining rooms, lounges, a library and staterooms housing sumptuous furniture, much of it original, a collection of paintings by French masters of the 17th and 18th centuries, and 20,000 volumes in prestigious signed bindings. Group visits by appointment all year round.

The castle has been constructed between 1707 and 1720 by Anne-François de Lastic on the basis of an old fortified house. It still belongs to the same family. Its English-style garden, overlooked by a patio lined with centenarian orange trees and old rose bushes, simply contrasts with the rigour of the court of honour where were reconstituted the six lawn beds which existed in the origin. Already quoted in the 18th century as one of the houses most richly furnished of the province, it is named by Henri Pourrat “the little Versailles of Auvergne”. Each generation never stopped enriching the exceptional collection of art objects of the castle, and we still can find an important part of its original furniture.

Come back on the road D722 and take the road D123 in direction of Orsonette – Lamontgie, and then the direction of Mailhat. This church (classified Historical Monument since 1859) is located on the way to Compostella and on the clunisian, cultural European itinerary. It is an old parish which depends today on the municipality of Lamontgie. Situated on a old place of worship, then on a little Gallo-roman temple became church (1900: cartulary of Sauxillanges). The actual church has been reconstructed by the monks of Sauxillanges (end of the 12th century) in an elegant and decorated style which contrasts with the regular severity of the Romanesque in Auvergne. From the original temple remain only six small columns that are used in the south porch and in the choir. The capitals and the modillions are full of flair and originality. But, if we know that some of them tell with shells that Mailhat was a step on the way to Compostella, others keep staying a mystery to solve.

This is a beautiful church famous for the quality and diversity of its sculptures on the porch, the apse and the choir. The church, built mainly in arkose, was built in the last third of the 12th century; preceded by a sanctuary given to the Cluny Abbey of Sauxillanges in the 11th century, it was fortified and raised in the late Middle Ages, and enlarged with side chapels in the 15th century. Classified as a Historical Monument in 1859, ND de Mailhat has a single nave plan and a half-timbered apse. An abundant decoration is found outside with anthropomorphic and zoomorphic heads on capitals and modillions. A man holding a purse, a fish, a woman nursing snakes frame the south door, adorned with Romanesque paintings and Gothic decoration. Inside, the motifs of the mermaid, eagles and griffins remind us of the influence of Antiquity during this Roman period. Dating from the 15th century, the bases of the south chapel, whose execution is remarkable, represent the angels who carry the instruments of passion.

Perched on a volcanic mound and overlooked by a Virgin statue, the village of Usson offers a 360° panorama on the chain of Puy, the Sancy Mountain, the Cézallier, the Cantal mounts and those of Livradois-Forez. This village keeps the memory of Queen Margot, who has been exiled in her fortress, one of the most important of the kingdom, for 19 years. Following the salamander path, you will discover the village, and be charmed by the greatness of its basalt columns, the power of its old ramparts, the charm of its streets climbing to the church, which is surrounded by old houses, a recreated forge, wine-making houses and artists workshops. All these elements help it being listed “Most beautiful village of France”.

This fortified village is located on the East side of a basalt flow; the Roman way from Clermont to Le Puy crossed its territory. By the way, it’s named after the Gallic word “broccos” that means rocky spur. The panorama on the Limagne’s plains is amazing. The parish life dates back to the 10th century, and Le Broc was part of an important fiefdom. It was the property of the family of Le Broc until 1304 and some representatives played an important role in the entourage of the Dauphins d’Auvergne. In the heart of the village, a walk allows you discover its heritage. In Chassaing’s hamlet subsist the buildings of the Chauliat commandery, gothic constructions with lower deck and turrets of spiral staircase. The chapel keeps interesting mural paintings, listed Historical Monument in 1969.

Built at the end of a basalt flow, the village of Le Broc is worth a visit. On the edge of the plateau, perched above the highway, the panorama is superb. Skilfully restored, the fortified village is part of the relief. Between the 11th and 13th centuries, the castle of Broc and its subordinate village appeared, represented in the Revel armorial around 1450. On the plateau at the foot of the chestnut trees, don't miss the " sculpted stones ". It features the coat of arms of a lord of Montmorin, owner of the castle at the end of the 16th century, as well as the silhouettes of a recumbent, a horse, a heraldic lion and a satyr's head. Then go into the village to visit the fortified district and the ruins of the castle. At the level of the lime chapel, we can see the high square donjon built around the 13th century and incorporated into an enclosure.

Granddaughter of François 1er (whose emblem was the salamander found in Usson), daughter of Henri II and Catherine de Médicis, sister of Charles IX, wife of Henri de Navarre, future Henri IV, Marguerite de Valois, known as Queen Margot, was born in 1553. Imprisoned in the fortress of Usson in 1585 on the orders of her brother Henri III, after getting rid of her jailer the Marquis de Montboissier-Canillac, she refurbished and decorated the château and held a brilliant and spiritual court attended by the best minds of her time, welcoming writers, poets, singers and musicians, inaugurating a literary genre by writing her memoirs, giving charity to the poor (Donnerie d'Usson), and leading a pious life without neglecting her love life.
