Discover Civrieux-d'Azergues

In Civrieux-d'Azergues, you can focus on nature, local history, or local traditions as different themes for your trip. Balad'Azergues draws attention to the river, its flora, and natural resources. Le Jardin de Nous Deux is a private garden and is open to the public by prior appointment only. The Conscrits bring together people born in the same decade to celebrate the change of decade. When choosing a hotel, this leads to a clear question: would you like to focus on a walk, a garden visit arranged in advance, or local festivities?

Balad'Azergues: riverside walk

In Civrieux-d'Azergues, Balad'Azergues starts at the pond on the right bank and is a walking route open to everyone. Along the route, you can discover the river, its flora, and its natural resources. This makes the walk a way to experience both nature and the river. When planning your day, the practical difference from a garden visit is that Balad'Azergues is an open walking route, while the private garden is accessible by appointment only. The route focuses on the river and nature; for the garden visit, arranging an appointment is the key planning step.

Le Jardin de Nous Deux: visits by appointment

Le Jardin de Nous Deux is located at 51 Chemin de Palayer in Civrieux-d'Azergues. As a private garden, it is open to the public by prior appointment only. The garden can be privately booked for groups and events; offerings may include drinks and/or snacks. These bookings also require prior arrangement. A public visit and a private booking are therefore different ways to plan a visit to the garden: in either case, the appointment should be arranged in advance. If this is an important part of your trip, factor the appointment into your plans.

Conscrits: traditions and event dates

The Conscrits bring together people born in the same decade to celebrate the change of decade. The age groups involved change over time. In Civrieux-d'Azergues, brioche loaves are usually sold during the Conscrits between February and March, on a route through the village; the period may vary depending on the weather. On Friday evening, there is also a costumed parade through the village accompanied by a fanfare or a batucada. The two activities have different focuses: the route combines brioche sales with a walk through the village, while Friday evening is marked by the costumed parade. Exact dates vary from year to year. If you are planning a trip specifically for the Conscrits, check the event dates for that year before travelling and bear in mind that the brioche sales period depends on the weather.

The de Sarron family coat of arms

The de Sarron family coat of arms can still be seen on the door of the castle's old keep and in the crypt of the village church. The same family emblem connects two different places through their cultural history. It offers a different perspective on local history alongside the Conscrits: the generations involved in the tradition change, while the coat of arms is the recurring motif at both of these locations. If you are more interested in local history than nature during your stay, this detail offers a specific point of interest alongside a walk on Balad'Azergues.
