Aaurons
Aurons is a small village dating from the 9th
century. It goes back to the prehistoric times
since axes, arrows and flints have been found
there. The village spirals around a medieval
mound that is surmounted by the ruins of a
Carolingian castle. The best place to view this site
is from a platform surrounding the statue of
Notre-Dame of Aurons.
Beneath the platform you
will find troglodyte rooms that are used for
artisan exhibits. In the central room stands the
largest and the most beautiful plane tree in the
departement. the fountains, the magnificent
church and his chapel, the charming pedestrian
streets are all reminders of the village's feudal
castle and past .
