Visiting the Gers
[Having returned from my two-week photo trip in Saintonge, I resume uploading the rest of my selected photos from 2020 (10 per day, usually in the morning CET), as well as a selection of my current, 2021 photos (usually 3 or 4 per day, in the evening CET).]
The Gers is a small part of the region of Aquitaine, which covers most of southwestern France. On July 2020, we rented a house for three weeks in the Gers area, and commencing today, I will upload a selection of the photographs I took while we were there. I hope you will enjoy them!
As usual, I will caption more specifically in bold type below whenever necessary.
The equally small (but much older: this one if from the mid-1000s, one of the oldest in all of Gascogne!) Romanesque church in the village of Pardailhan (also spelled Pardeilhan) also features a north-facing caquetoire, as the one shown and explained in the previous photo. However, this one was obviously designed from the start as part of the church.
