    These wells are aligned on a geological fold characterized by a layer of impermeable clay located under the outcropping limestone. Each well is built above a "cistern" dug into the rock. The wells are therefore independent of each other.

    The "cisterns" are filled in two ways: by vertical infiltration of rainwater and by lateral flow of water. Here we can see the determination and ingenuity of the Caussenards to capture water that is particularly rare in the region.

    A lovely place full of history! We walked along a white path and observed these buildings in a beautiful landscape!
