Very nice square

The square isn't the priority in the village (that is Rue des Remparts Sud), but it is nonetheless a very nice place to check out, and look for the storks nesting on the top of the church bell tower.

Lovely and Pleasant

Situated just below the chateau and chapel, is this lovely open square with a fountain. The statue is well executed. A lovely spot to grab some photographs or just sit and take in the beauty.
