Saint Nicholas (Saint NICOLAS), bishop of Myra, to whom the church in Castelnau-Barbarens is dedicated, is – along with Saint Martin – one of the most popular saints of all. Almost every child in Germany - and far beyond - should know his commemoration day, December 6th. On the eve of this day, the children used to put their shoes or boots in front of the door – which of course had to be cleaned with great care – so that they could be filled with gifts by St. Nicholas during the night. In more agricultural areas, it was also customary for the children to provide a small amount of food for the donkey, St Nicholas' riding animal (according to another tradition, it was a white horse).

Very nice tour ... thanks for this recommendation

Sublime view point over the valley and the Montegut castle. Take the small road to the left of the church, then right towards the white path. Continuing, you arrive at an orientation table.
