Mont Saint-Sébastien, Summit and free flight site near Autun, France.

Mont Saint-Sébastien reaches an elevation of 609 meters, offering broad views across the Morvan region and the Autun plain below.

The Liberation Cross, measuring 16 meters in height, was erected at the summit in 1945 to commemorate the liberation of Autun during World War II.

The mountain serves as a meeting point for local gatherings and celebrations, connecting residents through shared outdoor activities and regional traditions.

Two transmission towers stand at the summit, while designated takeoff areas for paragliding and hang gliding face different wind directions.

Since 1999, the Creusot Vol Libre organization manages the free flight activities from the monument plateau at 588 meters altitude.
