In French-speaking countries, a washhouse refers to a public, usually covered, washing place. In German-speaking countries, the term "Waschhaus" is more commonly used. The construction of washhouses was usually financed from the respective municipal coffers, as the washerwomen's often overly open and promiscuous behavior was to be discouraged or at least hidden behind walls and low-hanging roofs. (According to the opinion of ecclesiastical and governmental authorities, from whom else?) The history of covered washhouses, according to current knowledge, dates back to the 18th century. In the Middle Ages and the early modern period, women washed their laundry on stones by streams or rivers. In the wake of the Industrial Revolution and the associated pollution, covered structures began to appear in large numbers towards the end of the 18th century. This was also intended to reduce the risk of epidemics.

In this area the villages are rather deserted, here you can still find an Aubergers and a bakery, the village has beautifully decorated its places of interest.

In front of the chapel are well-preserved old graves, and the crosses of others are beautifully placed on the walls. It's worth taking a break here to admire the view and the old cemetery. Unfortunately, the chapel isn't always open.

I have seen it several times and it is truly a unique monument 🙂

Unique in the world, the Palais Idéal has inspired artists for over a century. Independent of any artistic movement, built without any architectural rules, the Palais Idéal was admired by the Surrealists. In 1969, it was classified as a Historic Monument by André Malraux, then Minister of Culture, as a work of naive art.

The original Marian shrine "La Salette", which is referred to here, is located in the French Alps (Arrondissement of Grenoble) and is an important Marian shrine, even if it has nowhere near the level of fame of other places of pilgrimage in honor of the Mother of God - such as Lourdes in the French Pyrenees or Fatima in Portugal.

This place is the story of a postman, Joseph Ferdinand Cheval, who in 1873 and for the following 33 years, built a dream palace in his vegetable garden. He picked up stones during his rounds with his wheelbarrow. Alone, he imagines an ideal palace, where you will find elephants, caimans, pelicans, bears, birds and many other curiosities. This unique place in the world has inspired many artists. Classified in 1969 as a Historic Monument, you can visit this place all year round.
