Medieval trail between Berry and Limousin
At the crossroads of Berry and Limousin, perched on a granite rock overlooking the river, this ancient medieval town, once home to Benedictine monks, offers, behind its ramparts, a charming stroll through its steep, narrow streets, where you can explore its 15th- and 16th-century houses, its church and its priory, as well as the Portfolio Valley, over which the village offers a lovely view.
The Saint-Benoît Scandals
“If you don’t choose a SITRAM, you might end up with a disaster!” That was the company’s slogan in a TV advert from the 1990s that has become a cult classic – and one you simply must watch again! Based on the outskirts of the medieval town of Saint-Benoît-du-Sault, SITRAM has been manufacturing pressure cookers and kitchenware since 1960. Renowned for its expertise, with products bearing the “Made in France” label, the company holds the Origine France Garantie® certification. As part of the Entreprises du Patrimoine Vivant® (EPV) network, the factory is also open to visitors by appointment.

"Ginette, la reine des boulettes"
A show presented by the Scènes et stylos Bénédictins association, based on Maëster's work and performed by Gabriel Dermodjan. Directed by Pierre-Emmanuel Barré, music by Frédéric Manoukiamazo.
Soeur Marie-Thérèse, a strong personality, whole-hearted if you give her the floor, she decides the rest. We learn with her that the Pope has declared her imminent beatification. She's brash and truculent, and gives her opinion, clear-cut but lucid, on our world below and the heavens above. She talks, she sings, she smokes, she drinks, she dances, and when that's not enough, she hits. She's alive, funny, vibrant, moving? palpable! (but at your own risk).
