Sights
- Ruins of the Château de Durfort
- Fountain built in 1897. The round basin is of pink marble from the Pic de Berles quarry situated in the communes of Vignevieille and Salza. At the centre is a column with the inscription: République Française, 1897, Jouve. The fountain runs permanently, even in drought.
gollark: We get home lateral flow tests here.
gollark: Enjoy your safety!
gollark: It seems like a bad tradeoff at this point.
gollark: The US situation with the AstraZeneca vaccine just seems bizarre and ridiculous. They're holding off on approving it because ??? and just having it sit there where nobody can use it. Whatever bureaucracy is going on is basically killing people (indirectly).
gollark: Was it *that* wrong apart from the US?
