Forbidden castles, lonely chapels, lost manuscripts... The Berry contains hidden treasures that La Bouinotte has decided to make us discover with its special issue that has just been released, entitled "Berry secret".
Among these amazing and yet unknown places is the church of Arthon. Between 1947 and 1952, the artists Line and Claude Malespine decided to repaint the interior walls. This renovation has become a real municipal affair: housed with the parish priest, partly fed by the inhabitants of Arthon, the Malespines used the tools lent by local artisans while the water necessary to wash the walls was provided by the firefighters!
Other essential subjects, this castle of the Lande in Crozon-sur-Vauvre under renovation, and the wild stones of the Cheret quarry in Boisramier. The floor is also given to the author Clarisse Sabard, honorary citizen of Châtillon and great lover of the Brenne.
Finally, it is impossible to miss this incredible story: the 6,000 unpublished handwritten sheets of Louis-Ferdinand Céline, hidden from 1944 to 2021 in a suitcase in Berry. Unbelievable but true!
Special issue "Berry secret" by La Bouinotte, 6.90 euros.

To share
The isolated chapels, scattered in the countryside, are numerous in Berry. Each has its own history, its share of customs and legends. Their big sisters, village churches or cathedral, also reserve surprises for curious visitors.

La Bouinotte is an independent publishing house located in Châteauroux, in the heart of France since 1982. On that date was published the first issue of Berry magazine, a quarterly that meets the inhabitants of this region, shows its natural treasures, its cities and villages, questions its future and does not forget to dissect its rich past through reports, investigations, portraits, stories, historical articles...
By the way, what is a bouinotte?
A Bouinotte, in the dialects of the center of France, is a small wall opening, symbol of the original look that the founding trio of the magazine wanted to take on the Berry, following an idea of Léandre Boizeau, in 1982.
La Bouinotte is a 1901 law association, the professional team is thus accompanied by about fifteen active volunteers who participate in its operation, in particular for the organization of events such as the Plumes en Berry book fair and the Nuit Polar. It is chaired by Guy Boursin.
Issue after issue, the Berry magazine team shares with you its love for this region as discreet as it is rich in a long history, natural treasures that never cease to amaze us.
Since 1982, she has been taking you on the paths of the Indre, the Cher, to meet those who make up the soul of this corner of France. The Bouinotte is (in berrichon!) A small window through which to observe the Berry of yesterday and today through portraits, reports, complete files on the issues that agitate this region to reinvent, for tomorrow.
La Bouinotte is also an independent magazine, a state of mind, where the requirement does not exclude humor. And a militant commitment that has never been denied during these three decades, in favor of a region that is dear to us. And who gains so much to be known!
Welcome to your local magazine!
will be Very hard going!
