This site has been created by a French speaker and the pages are in French.

Update of the 16.09.2023

... It is not a question here of nostalgia for the past and its characters whose life was mostly violent for the powerful, and not very enviable for the others (random medicine, difficult living conditions, constant wars...).

This site aims simply to present the traces that society leaves of its more or less famous men and women via commemorative plaques, statues, ... and bibliographic and iconographic archives from my own library.

Incertitudes photographiques / Photographic uncertainties
et Visites photographiques / Photographic tours
