A true testimony to the moving and essential pages of history
of our towns and their inhabitants, the small popular heritage, the one that we get to know every day in the heart of our villages, has many things to tell us.
of our towns and their inhabitants, the small popular heritage, the one that we get to know every day in the heart of our villages, has many things to tell us.
The Jalinière fountain is the ultimate testimony to the multiple sources that gushed from the Saint-Marc coast. The washhouse could tell us about the social hierarchy in community life before TV; The bread oven could say and slander many of our elders, as it has heard so many things that should not be repeated. The worn staircases, the dovecotes, the old workshops are still haunted by those who used them... So to defend and promote these fragments of our disappearing history, an association was created in the commune of Château-Arnoux-Saint-Auban . The Heritage Association aims to promote the safeguarding, knowledge and development of “local heritage”. An objective in no way outdated since on the contrary it is a question of giving life and meaning to places of memory, public or private, and replacing them in a historical perspective. An association which should interest both the “less young” and the “young”. Don’t hesitate to come join us. In addition to environmental outings, exhibitions or various activities of heritage interest and involving the entire population. Note the days in June dedicated to the “Promotion of Country Heritage” and the “Friend of Bread Festival” on the 3rd weekend of September, during the European Heritage Days.
