At first glance, passing visitors may ask themselves "Lagnieu, can you visit it?" Indeed, there is no obvious historical center here. Nevertheless, from the Middle Ages to the Disco years, a lot happened in Lagnieu! And this story can still be seen today, through almost erased details, discreet buildings or forgotten anecdotes that the guide will be happy to point out, reveal and tell you. A visit that will surprise you!

A wandering in the city center, in the footsteps of a vanished past, which ends with the astonishing discovery of the very beautiful murals of the Château de Montferrand. Carefully restored recently, the walls here tell another story, another era, when Lagnieu was part of an important public life.

A visit that puts the adage "true beauty is inside" into perspective!

An urban walk that dismantles preconceived ideas and thus transforms our view of a city center that has been modernized today, pieces of history by little bits of the past, almost invisible.
