The Château d'Auzon in Lucenay-lès-Aix has been documented since the 15th century and was rebuilt in the 1830s. In 1840, Clémentine Chabot commissioned landscape architect Paul Lavenne de Choulot to create a landscaped park at the Château d'Auzon. The design included large meadows; the park was crossed by the Auzon River and featured a body of water with an island aligned with the château. In September, the Château d'Auzon was opened to the public during the Heritage Days.
