Digoin

The Loire defines the setting of Digoin — its broad valley has long made the town a meeting point for river and canal navigation. Here, the Canal du Centre connects with the Canal latéral à la Loire, linking inland Burgundy’s waterways to a wider French network. Digoin’s defining monument is its canal bridge, opened in 1838: the waterway crosses above the Loire on a long stone structure rather than joining the river below. This engineering landmark gives the town a distinct identity within the historic canal country of southern Burgundy.
