A bit of culture:
The name Buisante comes from the boxwood that once covered the hill. The summit of the site is topped by the chapel dedicated to Our Lady of Buisante. The building dates back to the 19th century. Initially, it was an oratory that was transformed into a chapel in 1895. On August 15, it became a place of pilgrimage to protect the grape harvest. The hail cannon, displayed next to it, illustrates the fight against climatic hazards in the early 20th century. Another unique feature of the place: a sundial placed on the ground. The game consists of standing on it, so that the sun's rays cast your shadow, telling the time.
