Culture and History
Notre-Dame de Bias also combines distinctive architectural details: the core of the church is Romanesque, while the western bell gable has three bells. There is also a contemporary Stations of the Cross with 14 stations, created by François Peltier.
The Domaine de Senelles is a former small château dating from the 17th century. Its four exterior façades are extensively decorated with faience as well as antique and modern porcelain. The façades also contain more than 700 ceramics of French, English, Belgian, Swedish and Japanese origin. The Domaine de Senelles underwent extensive restoration and reconstruction in 2024 and 2025; it is offered as part of guided tours.
At the restored Moulin de Bias, flint mills grind flour using an old technique; they are powered by a horizontal wheel. The mill also has a working forge and an exhibition of old, hand-forged tools.
