Maisod: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes
The Château de Maisod is privately owned and was rebuilt at its present location in 1565, with the lower part of the main building and the square tower. The poet Lamartine stayed at the Château de Maisod in 1815.
Renting a holiday apartment in Maisod is the specific accommodation intention for this destination.

The playful circular trail Sentier de la sirène égarée is 3.4 km long, begins in the municipality of Maisod, and is equipped with directional signs, a large book, and crab-shaped markers.
