Situation

     On this map, Epanvilliers Castle dated 1923, a red dot identifies Brux and lines are for railways. It is easy to reach and explore the area. The TGV cuts right across the Brux commune but we have also roads, among them the Nationale 10, Paris to Spain.

     Brux is 40 km from Poitiers, 50km from Futuroscope.

    You may even come with your plane : the airfield, known as "Aérodrome de Couhé" lies in fact on the Brux commune, 4km from the village. 'As the crow flies'.

    On the Church Square, the Brux Museum presents a history of the regional clothing old portrait photographs and a biography of Count Rivaud de la Raffinière, country native and one of Buonaparte's "Géneral d'Empire". 

     Frequent special exhibitions and regular gallery shows by local artists add interest to any visit to the commune.
