Granite is a material used for centuries: rollers, pavers, fountains, objects of art, constructions... But it is also a modern material with multiple applications: tiles, building cladding, modern furniture ...
At Bécon, granite has its history: the remains of the past are numerous: wells, castles, bridges, wash-house ... Taking the walking tour is to discover the ancient sites of the quarries of Bécon.
Through this heritage, we also keep the memory of the lives of the grisonniers: their joys, traditions and conflicts are the subject of tasty anecdotes.
The visit can be coupled to the heritage route "The Tour of Bécon in 80mn", an urban circuit of 6km and 8 desks.
