Description of the partner organizing/hosting the project:
Duravel has a very rich 2000 year old history. It was founded by the ancient Romans because of its strategic geographic location between Bordeaux and Lyon. Many remains are still visible today, in spite of the many religious wars that took place here (1596). The city would like to preserve and restore its famous historical heritage, and more specifically its 160 meters high Middle-Age battlements that protected the city during war against England in the year 1369. You will be working on these battlements. It is the 5th consecutive year that Duravel and its local population are warmly welcoming an international workcamp.
