Photo TidbitsCollonges la Rouge
By Jim and Emmy Humberd
The steps, the flowers, and the entrance to this house almost makes this a 'cliché' photo. Most of the buildings in Collonges-la-Rouge were constructed using dark red stone, therefore the name rouge, French for red. Part of Collonges la Rouge was built in the 1000s, other parts in the 1500s, and we saw at least one 'new' building dated in the 1800s. These days most of the town is for the tourist, with churches, restaurants, and gadget stores galore, and with flowers and grape arbors lining the walking streets. Books by Jim and Emmy Humberd: |
