Description
A walk in the Ecusson de Montpellier (historic center) to discover all its beauties and all its eras without having to walk too far.
The tour focuses on history, not only through dates, but by evoking the communities that inhabited the city, events, famous or typical figures, unusual places, and anecdotes
We walk through the alleyways, squares, and courtyards with the aim of better understanding the city, taking a closer look at it, and therefore feeling comfortable there or keeping a good memory of it and beautiful images for those who pass through.
The city has a rich past (commercial, medical, Catholic but also Jewish and Protestant, architectural, etc.) and there is much to learn and see.
