Local history and culture Midi-Pyrénées

The site of Space rock preserves the remains of the medieval castle which once dominated the city. There remains only the tank, because the Count of Toulouse destroyed it in 1238 in order to abort any risk of insubordination. Around this rock, a botanical garden has been built. It allows you to discover aromatic plants and shrubs, pushing in the midst of remnants of ancient walls. A break to this site also allows you to enjoy the panorama of the city, the valley of the Sorgues and the seven hills.

It is a unique geological site with a history of over 20 centuries. It was under Louis XIV that everything really started. The marble blocks of the Musée du Roy went into Rafts from the Neste, in the Vallée Valley, to Versailles! Thanks to the members of the Association «Les Marbled de l'Espiadet», you can now follow the smooth paths of the th century. You will discover a beautiful, impressive and majestic career through visits, «poetry» illuminations, shows, theme nights… which are organized throughout the summer on this exceptional site. When you go to Payolle, the Career of Le Roy is a forced passage. So ask the program and go there. You will be amazed and you won't regret the trip!
