Historic buildings and local museum collections shape the cultural side of Marzy; nearby, the Bec d’Allier is also home to a natural area.
Culture
The Église Saint-André was built in the 12th century. At the entrance to the choir, it has a bell tower with a circular ground plan. By decree of 13 September 2012, the church was fully classified as a historic monument.
The Musée Gautron du Coudray provides insights into everyday life and folklore around the turn of the 20th century. Its collections include local natural history, works by artists and writers from the Nivernais, as well as everyday objects from a community shaped by agriculture and viticulture. The museum presents at least three temporary exhibitions every year.
Other historic buildings include the Lavoir de Marzy and the Puits de Marzy. The lavoir is a washhouse built in 1847 at the place known as “fontaine Girard”. The Puits de Marzy is a well built from hewn stone at 8–10 Rue des Charrons; only its wrought-iron crank is visible from the street.
