The château d'Igé stands at the bottom of a valley north of the village, in Saône-et-Loire. Dating from the Middle Ages, it still shows three round towers and a carriage gate that once defended a large quadrangle surrounded by moats, partly dismantled in the 19th century. A private property turned into a hotel in the 20th century, it now belongs to the Georges Blanc group. The building is not open to visitors and has been closed since 2023.
