Departure from Baraqueville (Aveyron)
This is the land of white water and a thousand springs that feed numerous streams and small lakes further downstream. A short detour at the town’s main crossroads allows you to see three spires: since 1997, they have stood at the centre of the crossroads where Baraqueville was founded, clearly marking the place the town intends to retain at the heart of the Ségala, that of the main hub for events and interaction. The three spikes symbolise the Ségala’s past and give way between them to the three roads of the crossroads, which, when viewed from above, form the spokes of a turning wheel.
