Korsbetningen was a site of the battle between Danish King Valdemar Atterdag’s army and Gotlanders, fought on 27th July, 1361. Approximately 1800 peasants were slaughtered in the battle and buried to the field. There is a medieval, Gothic-style stone cross with Latin inscription: "AD 1361, third day after the Jacob’s day, fell Gotlanders into the hands of Danish in front of Visby gates. They are buried here. Pray for them."

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
