Origin and history

The Bevay Farm, located in the commune of Beaupont (Ain), is a historical monument whose most remarkable element is its sarrazine fireplace. This rural building was partially protected by a decree of 20 June 1944, specifically concerning its roof and the whole of this chimney, both for its exterior part (strain out of height) and for its interior structure. The location of the farm, reported as approximate, is located around the site 570 Mln de Bevey, in an area where cartographic accuracy is considered poor (level 5/10).

Sarrazine chimneys, typical of some French regions, are masonry works often associated with farms or old houses. Their presence in monuments such as the Bevay Farm demonstrates traditional construction techniques, adapted to local domestic and climatic needs. The listing of this chimney as a Historic Monument underscores its heritage interest, although available sources (including Monumentum) do not provide additional details on the specific history of the farm or its occupants.

The building does not appear to be systematically open to the visit, and its current use (housing, farming, etc.) is not specified in the data consulted.
