    Tips

    May 11, 2023

    This casselle is located along a route with information boards about the historical use of the landscape. In this region are many of these dry stone huts that were built by farmers in the late 18th and 19th centuries. They used them as a shelter for cattle, chicken coop or storage place for their tools. A hole had been dug in this particular casselle to create a spring. Not much water is available on the dry limestone plateaus, so it had to come from deep. The well remained in use until 1970, when the village was connected to the water supply.
