Tourist Information and places to visit

In a splendidly scenic setting, Baume-les-Messieurs is surrounded by steep wooded slopes rising to high cliffs - the Cirque de Baume, the meeting place of three impressive valleys. The village is classified as a 'most beautiful village in France'.

Within the village itself the benedictine abbey of Saint-Peter, and its church, is the main sight - the abbey dates from the early 10th century (and replaced an even older abbey in the same location). We can well believe that it was a suitably quiet spot for monks to meditate before the advent of roads!

The village is small and contains a perfect ensemble of unspoiled, not too renovated, streets and houses, a perfect place for a short visit and exploration

Very close to the village it is well worth visiting the Baume-les-Messieurs caves, and the adjacent waterfall. The great cavernous stalactite filled 'rooms' have been carefully lit (and filled with music in one or the caverns) for maximum impact.

Also near to Baume-les-Messieurs (north-east) is the pine forest at Foret de la Joux, with many magnificent old pine trees lining the numerous marked walks. South of the town, don't miss the Hérisson waterfalls - easily accessed and very impressive!
