The fief of the lords of Bag\u00e9<\/h2><\/div>\n\n

Present for nearly 3 centuries, the lords of Bag\u00e9 <\/strong>left their mark on the territory and made B\u00e2g\u00e9-le-Ch\u00e2tel the first political capital of Bresse from the ninth to the thirteenth century<\/strong>, thanks to its privileged location in Bresse. Dominating the plain by about fifty metres, the city of B\u00e2g\u00e9-le-Ch\u00e2tel still retains traces of its history and its prestigious past, in particular thanks to squares and streets with evocative names: the Place de l’Eperon, the Place du Jeu de l’Arc… or the rue Condemnale which provides access to the Place de l’\u00c9cart, where the condemned were once quartered. <\/p>\n\n

In addition to some traces of the old ramparts<\/strong>, the town retains its castle<\/strong> (private property) and a few towers<\/strong>, one of which is topped with a weathervane with the coat of arms of Bag\u00e9 and is adorned with two nineteenth-century stained glass windows relating the life of the lords of B\u00e2g\u00e9. <\/p>\n\n

A discovery circuit<\/strong> of the city of the lords of Bag\u00e9<\/strong> marked out with explanatory plaques allows you to walk freely through the village and to go around it by the parapet walk<\/strong>. The tourist office offers guided tours of the village in summer!<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n

Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Martin<\/strong>, chef of the restaurant “La table b\u00e2g\u00e9sienne”<\/strong> www.latablebagesienne.com<\/a> distinguished by a Bib gourmand, will delight your taste buds!<\/p>\n\n
