    Hiking

    The keystones of many homes in the village center reflect a refined aesthetic, demonstrating the gentrification of the wealthiest residents. The notables settled around the church.

    Indeed, many of them have carved stone door frames, or even carved keystones, unlike the older, more rustic houses built by peasants when they came to settle in the valley floor. This elegance, further emphasized by some doors made of fine wood such as walnut, with moldings or carved decorations, are a clear testament to this prosperity. Unfortunately, too many of these doors have disappeared during successive renovations to the homes.

    The same observation applies to the windows of some houses, which still display a former splendor... but a lack of maintenance that could very well prove fatal. But one can only imagine how proud these elegant joinery windows with their small glass panes must have been of those who had them built. Concern for comfort sometimes even extended to equipping these openings with interior shutters.

    Some windows, although dilapidated in houses now virtually abandoned, must have been nothing short of class and splendor at a time when Le Castellet had nearly 400 inhabitants.
