200th anniversary (1823-2023) of the acquisition of the Domaine de la Barbeyère by pastor Louis-François ARNAUD (1790-1864) still owned by the descendants of his son the historian of Protestantism and renowned pastor François-Eugène ARNAUD (1826-1905).
In the 1930s, part of the property was ceded to the architect of civil buildings and national palaces Edouard ARNAUD (1864-1943), nephew of the previous ones, who was a precursor in France of reinforced concrete constructions.
Old country house of the eighteenth built on an old property of BARBEYER, consuls of Crest in the sixteenth century, called the "Countryside of Barbeyère". It was renovated in 1823 by the ARNAUD family, with creation of wash houses, ponds and park.
