La Réunion: Holiday apartments and holiday homes

The Château du Sendat is fully protected as a historic monument. It preserves remains of a building from the late Middle Ages as well as a château from the 17th century, which was extensively restored in the mid-19th century by Félix Duban. The protected estate also fully includes the gardens, parks, avenues and vistas.

Culture and history

The Eglise Saint-Eutrope de Couthures is a Romanesque church that was fortified during the Hundred Years’ War and the Wars of Religion. The former spring at the Eglise Saint-Eutrope de Couthures continues to be a pilgrimage destination.

Every year, a very old pilgrimage takes place at the Eglise de Beyrac on Whit Monday. The Eglise de Beyrac is normally open only once a year during the pilgrimage. Architecturally, it is a medieval Romanesque church with a single-nave interior, a semicircular apse and a two-arched bell gable.

The Eglise du Sendat is part of the cultural heritage of La Réunion; the burial site of the last Baron of Sendat is located nearby. The Galerie Égrégore is housed in a former barn with 24 nativity scenes, as well as in the remains of a chapel that have been converted into an art gallery.

Nature and trails

The 27-hectare grounds of the Galerie Égrégore are classified by the Conservatoire des Espaces Naturels de Nouvelle Aquitaine; works of art can be viewed outdoors there. The local heritage of La Réunion also includes a washhouse surrounded by centuries-old trees.
