About the project

ON THE WASHERWOMEN'S STEPS

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

City of Art and History whose abbey and cloister are listed as World Heritage by UNESCO, Moissac watches over its rich heritage from the Medieval Ages to the Modern era. This project wishes to offer the downtown residents a green escape in the heart of their living space. Accompanied by dynamic leaders, you will share working time together, but also many moments of intercultural exchange with the local population and the volunteers of the city. In association with the locals, young and old, you will renovate a traditional wash house a few steps away from the abbey. You will participate in the security of the site, the creation of a path, laundry, and establishing a path between the wash house and Carmel, a place on the path to Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be staying in tents near the worksite where you will have access to a kitchen and bathroom.
