'Our village of the past, present and future'

An exhibition of the inhabitants, for the inhabitants

Thus, a visitor shared his feeling in the guestbook of the exhibition Gens d'Ici - Humans of Saint-Saturnin organized by the Association of Friends of Saint-Saturnin on the occasion of its 90 years. An exhibition of 17 portraits of the inhabitants of the village, some known, some less known, some young, others less young, some born in Saint-Saturnin, others arrived more recently. Each portrait, consisting of a text and a photo made by members of the Association, has sometimes made it possible to discover inhabitants, sometimes to re-discover them, sometimes to learn a detail about someone you think you know well. Because, as everyone has said, we know each other, of course, but “we know each other a little”.
Whether during the Heritage Days or during the week, the vast majority of people from Saint-Saturnin, the surrounding area, as well as visitors from all over France, Quebec and Australia, visited this exhibition. Everyone was touched to see that the intangible heritage, the people who live in our village, were highlighted, and expressed their passion for this village, its history and respect for material heritage.
Get to know each other better and discover those you think you know but don’t really know!
