An archaeology area where you can discover Chauvigny's built and industrial heritage
In the Gouzon dungeon (12th and 13th centuries), the archaeology area offers visitors the chance to discover Chauvigny's built and industrial heritage. To visit, take the elevator, designed by architect Sylvain Dubuisson. As you tour the space (also with a tablet), you'll be shown through the eyes of an archaeologist, the industries of the Chauvinois region, from Neolithic times to the present day, including the porcelain and stone that have made the town famous. Go to the terrace.

Le donjon témoigne de deux périodes de construction. Un premier bâtiment carré, aux dimensions modestes (12e siècle) et un élargissement vers l’ouest accompagné d’un surhaussement de contreforts arrondis (13e siècle).
Le donjon accueille depuis une vingtaine d’années l’Espace d’archéologie industrielle. Quand on pense que le donjon repose sur un niveau déjà occupé par les hommes 3500 ans avant Jésus Christ, cette nouvelle vocation lui correspond à merveille!
