Maisonnisses, a Templar village between Bourganeuf and Pontarion

Nestled between Bourganeuf and Pontarion, the commune of Maisonnisses is distinguished by its heritage linked to the Order of the Templars, who owned a commandery there in the 12th century. The village retains vestiges of this glorious era, particularly in the architecture of some of its buildings. Surrounded by forests and meadows, this commune in the Montagne limousine offers a preserved natural setting, typical of the high plateaus of Creuse.

A car boot sale between individuals

The Vide-Greniers de Maisonnisses is strictly reserved for individuals, guaranteeing the authenticity of the items offered: family furniture, antique tableware, linens, toys, books, records, and a thousand and one objects from attics and wardrobes. This formula encourages direct exchanges between sellers and buyers, in a relaxed and family atmosphere. Pitches are offered at €1 per linear meter, a modest price that encourages participation.

Small catering and refreshment stand

To accompany this day of bargain hunting, small catering and a refreshment stand are available on site. Bargain hunters can thus regain their strength between discoveries, while enjoying the village atmosphere of this Templar village in Creuse.
