Culture and history

The kiosk in Bussières is unique in the canton. It was built in 1930 through a public fundraising campaign organised by A. Jourlin, the director of the Bussières brass band, inaugurated on 20 July 1930 during a large music festival, and handed over to the municipality.

The present-day Eglise Saint Barthélémy was inaugurated in 1843 and stands on the site of an older church built around 1250. The Chapelle Saint-Roch is dedicated to the patron saint of pilgrims, the healer of plague victims and the protector of animals.
