Labastide-Gabausse walks

Set off to discover the different types of dovecotes in the Ségala, following a themed route. These dovecotes were essential, through their production of guano, for enriching the soil in the cultivation of woad, which was the emblem of the Pays de Cocagne. Some are of simple construction, whilst others, more imposing and integrated into large estates, bear witness to the wealth of the pastell growers of yesteryear.
