Alaigne in the Languedoc

The little village of Alaigne is where where a Chateau once stood on top of a hill.  Today old houses occupy the space around the square on the same footprint as the old castle.


One of the arches leading up to the square


A shady spot


The village Auberge called La Galloise, ( TheWelsh),
owned by a Welsh couple.


The square centre of the village


The fountain in the square


A shady spot in the square where the old men sit and chat



La Boulangerie where I bought Croissants, pain au chocolat and baguette each morning for breakfast


the village church of course


Shuttered windows typical of the region
