THE MANOR OF LAU

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

In the village of Allemans, witness the privilege of the local history full of surprises. We will look closely at the Manoir du Lau, which has deteriorated over time.The Patrimoine Allemansois Association, alongside the town hall, have been fighting to rehabilitate this building into a friendly place for exhibitions and cultural events, in the spirit of community life. For three years, an association has been brought together to rehabilitate this remarkable structure and its magnificent octogonal tower, including a spiral staircase and renaissance room with a enormous fireplace and cushioned window. It overlooks an endearing park with a stable, a pavillion, and an oven for baking breads, all waiting for some goodwill and enthusiasm for its revival.

💼 What the programme involves

With local volunteers, you will participate in the rehabilitation work of the manor, using traditional techniques: making lime plasters, working on the old bread oven, etc.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Under tents. Food will be provided so you may prepare meals in turns.
