Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 61 reviews
Between the 1st and 4th century, Sanxay was an important centre for cures and pilgrimages placed under the protection of two divinities. Set in the verdant valley of the Vonne, the remains of the largest buildings (temples, amphitheatre, thermal baths) located throughout a 19-hectare site make the site one of the best preserved and most interesting of the monuments belonging to Gallo-Roman times.

First class tour (on Fridays there is an English speaking guide). Explains how silver was dug out of the mines. Very interesting and informative.

I read a couple of negative reviews on here before my visit - they seem to be from the same person but a year apart so I am not sure if they are personal, but they seem a bit odd if not. Why would you return if you didn't like it the first time? Also, yes the name of the park does tell it all - it is a sheep park. Not sure what he thought he was getting!!! However, these didn't put me off and I visited along with my son who is 2 and a half, and my mother in law. We had a great time and wished we could have stayed longer! Yes it is mostly full of sheep (again, as the name suggests...) but you go in expecting that so unless your expectations are for a zoo, you shouldn't be disappointed. There were a huge number of animals to see and the surroundings were lovely - they all have little houses in their pens relevant to their breed and there are some other animals like alpacas, donkeys and pigs. There was a great playground and a few other facilities such as a little education hut and a much bigger building next to the playground. The mini farm by the playground was also lovely, with small animals like small goats, rabbits, ducks and chickens. We watched some of the animals get fed but unfortunately missed the lamb bottle feeding. The little shop within the ticketing office was also good and had a wide range of products on offer. I thought the ticket prices were reasonable too - definitely not a rip off. If you are in the area and looking for a family-friendly activity, then I would highly recommend this.
