Bière - Stroll of paper mill, tile factory, martinet and mill
During this walk devoted to the old professions of the area, you can first of all discover the remains of the old paper mill (1603-1837). Five hundred meters further, walk along the beautiful former tile factory, where tiles were manufactured until 1928.
Finally, in a pretty vale, the visitor can admire the site, that saw the activities of a martinet (forge), a sawmill and a mill from which the millers have disappeared, but where the SEFA still exploits the hydraulic power of the place by means of an impressive Archimedes' screw.

Municipality of Bière
The origin of the word "Bière" is believed to originate from two different roots. First we find "beria" which means plateau. There is also the word "Biber" which can be translated as "to drink". Both roots are now accepted. In 1705, the village was almost completely destroyed by a fire. Only a few documents of the year 1574 could be saved.
In Bière, there are a few restaurants, including two pubs and three pizzerias, which offer local specialities. In the surroundings, there are also other establishments that will excite the taste buds of their clientele.
Bière also has a valuable historical heritage, with its church; part of the current choir dates from the 12th century.
