The present-day commune of Coudrecieux is made up of the former parish of the same name, which was joined to that of Les Loges in 1808. Their place names reflect the wooded environment of these villages, 50% of which is still woodland today. Coudrecieux refers to the hazelnut wood known locally as coudre, and Les Loges to the light dwellings, made of branches and heather, occupied temporarily by charcoal burners and other forest workers.
The Coudrecieux trail will enable you to discover the rich architectural and landscape heritage of this commune. These include the Manoir de la Cour, the Château des Loges and the Church of Les Loges (with its stone bell tower dating back to the year 1000), all of which are enhanced by interpretation panels.
