Maisons sur L’Agout
Castres
Description
Atypiques, poétiques et éternelles, les maisons sur l’Agout offrent à la ville de Castres un décor de carte postale.
Formerly workshops of tanners, parchment makers or weavers, these colorful houses with pastel shades are half-timbered and date from the 13th century. Their marvelous facades have since been restored several times in order to
their delicate and medieval charm. Almost unreal depending on the light, they can be contemplated from the front along the river banks or from the different bridges of the city. The most difficult thing will be to capture the best moment to observe them: the evening lights, the changes of weather, the reflections on the water.
