Billy's military fortress, built at the end of the XIIth century and at the beginning of the XIIIth century, was an element of the heritage of Bourbons during several centuries. Billy's walled city was second the châtellenie largest on seventeen that counted the province of Bourbonnais; she(it) stayed powerful up to French Revolution. «Billy's castle becomes apparent as being one of the castrales constructions and military the most emblematic of medieval Bourbonnais». P. Picq
