1) Planted during the reign of Henry IV, the elm tree also figures on the village's coat of arms. It was replaced by an olive tree in 1983.

2) You will also see Notre-Dame church on the square. When you leave the church, pass under the porch and enter the old village, with its narrow streets cramped between the ancient ramparts. The original door and window frames can still be seen on some houses.

3) You will then arrive at Place Gabriel Péri, formerly called "Castle Square" - a seigneurial residence reworked in the 18th century by the Lords of Audibert. As you go down Rue Victor Léon, you will pass in front of the "Porte Sarrasine" portcullis.

4) Head back up the street, then go down Avenue Clémenceau to the Landings Memorial inaugurated in 1959. Next, go on to Sainte-Anne chapel, built in the 16th century and the cemetery where the actor Gérard Philipe lies. Shaded by a laurel tree and covered in ivy, his tomb is one of the cemetery's most discreet.
