À propos du lieu

Mairie de l'Estréchure

Le village, 30124 L'Estréchure

Gard
Occitanie

How did the Cévenol village of L'Estréchure look in 1906? What were they selling in their shops? What were they talking about in their cafés? How did its inhabitants, spinners, farmers, sericiculteurs, lumberjacks, milliners or sabotiers live on a day-to-day basis? All this will be evoked in a guided tour that will lead you from the town hall-school to the edge of the Gardon.
