ranger49 Says: This impressive statue, in the square in front of the Town Hall and opposite the Hotel de Beauvoir commemorates Monsieur et Madame de Pompery who were responsible for introducing new agricultural methods in the region between 1830 and 1880. It was unveiled by their son and...

ranger49 Says: The restaurant, named La Vieille Renommée, in Hotel Beauvoir where we stayed in July 2007 was particularly recommended to us. It seemed an odd name for a restaurant and we did not discover its history. Was it perhaps once run by an old lady who was a very good cook? Or is it...
