Culture
The Église Saint-Pierre houses two protected brotherhood figures of Saint Catherine. The oldest parts of the church – the sanctuary, the seigneurial chapel and the base of the bell tower – probably date from the 15th century. The bell tower with its square roof was built in the 18th century.
The Château de Conflandey also preserves traces of history: the surviving fortification elements probably date from the 14th and 16th centuries. The surviving north gate once housed a drawbridge. The history of wire drawing in Conflandey dates back to 1686, when a blast furnace and a forge were built.
Water
The Bief de Conflandey includes a diversion, protective or sluice gates, a lock, and a fixed and a movable weir; the work was carried out between 1878 and 1882. The lock of the Bief de Conflandey lies directly in the bed of the Saône and not in a bypass canal.
There are numerous fishing spots along the banks around the confluence of the Saône and Lanterne rivers in Conflandey. The riverbanks in Conflandey offer opportunities for recreation and walks for people seeking peace and nature.
Nature
The Réserve naturelle de la Grotte du Carroussel lies entirely in wooded terrain and covers 2.31 hectares. The cave opens onto an east-facing cliff on a Bajocian plateau on the right bank of the Saône at an altitude of approximately 220 metres.
In winter, 14 bat species use the site of the Réserve naturelle de la Grotte du Carroussel. Access to the Réserve naturelle de la Grotte du Carroussel is prohibited to the public in order to protect its bat populations.
