Chauvigny
Information
Chauvigny is a commune of the Vienne département, in western France.
Chauvigny is located 20 miles east of Poitiers by rail. The town is finely situated overlooking the Vienne River and a small brook.
Chauvigny features two interesting Romanesque churches, both restored in modern times. There are also ruins of a château of the bishops of Poitiers, and of several other strongholds.
Near Chauvigny is the curious bone-cavern of Jioux, the entrance to which is fortified by large blocks of stone.
Five strong castles : de Gouzon, Baronnial or des Evêques, d'Harcourt, de Montléon, La Tour de Flin.
