What the French Ministry of Culture records

La butte de Bréon ou Brion, d’une altitude moyenne (1273 m), conserve les vestiges d’un château protégé par un fossé, d’une basse-cour et d’une enceinte. Ce château était le siège d’une seigneurie apparue à la fin du Xe ou au début du XIe siècle ; la famille de Bréon occupa une place importante parmi les familles nobles d’Auvergne au Moyen Âge.
