It's Saturday morning, market day! Come and meet our local producers under the Halles. This 17th century building was once the site of a famous cattle fair. Today it is a place of sharing and gathering for all the villagers. You will find everything you need to make your picnic. Before leaving, take a look above your head. You will find an impressive frame and a sundial dating from 1627. Prepare yourself for a short climb to the castle of Villebois-Lavalette. This monument has a path at the foot of the ramparts where you can walk freely. The landscape from the heights is breathtaking! Now, let's go to Ronsenac for a trip full of enchantment. In the center of the village, the legendary fountain is hidden. It is said that if you manage to throw a coin in it with your back turned, you will end up married within a year. Nearby, you will find the church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste and its priory. Beautiful sculptures adorn the walls of these monuments and a 14th century fresco of a reading monk is painted inside. It is now time to return. But one thing is sure, it is not this tour that will make your legs hurt. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
