Week 49 2017

Hello!

Not often you get a sight like this in your village, the 19 Confreries of Castillon gathered together and paraded through the streets last Saturday!

Click on the link to see them in action in Castillon.  Following a Masse they marched through the village for an apero at the Salle Culturel.

Whatever you do this week in the Gironde and Dordogne regions, wrap up warm - it's going to be cold!

Best wishes,
Helen
