Built on the ruins of a former castle, the sanctuary of Notre-Dame du Sacré-Coeur was founded on the initiative of abbé Thomas in 1932. The carillon of 49 bells, from the Paccard foundries of Annecy-le-Vieux (74), dates from 1939. The belfry which houses it, the sole belfry built in France for a carillon, is an octagonal tower of reinforced concrete, the work of the Lyon architect Louis Mortamet. The first projects date from 1941, the works from 1946 to 1947. Concerts are regularly given there.
