Jeu "Explorer autrement Aumagne - Chagnon"

Using your smartphone or GPS, set off to discover Chagnon's rich and unsuspected heritage and answer a quiz. Departure from the corner of Rue Principale and Impasse de l'École in Chagnon. A tour of Chagnon's built and landscaped heritage. This commune covers an area of 2050 hectares and is made up of 23 hamlets with a rich heritage. Its geographical location at the crossroads of two major communication routes, and its economy based mainly on agriculture and wine-growing, made it one of the most important communes in the Saint-Jean d'Angély district in the 19th century. The village of Chagnon grew during this period with the construction of large houses whose owners made a living from distilling wine. Nearby, in Le Pignaud, two "châteaux" built in the 19th century bear witness to the wealth of this wine-producing activity.
