REDISCOVER “TRA”DITION
MONT-DORE, FRANCIA
Attività principali
Would you like to take part in an experimental archaeology project and learn traditional building techniques? Then this project is for you!
The Mont-Dore town hall is participating in a European project aimed at promoting high mountain heritage and wants to build semi-underground pastoral huts, also known as “tra”, as they existed in Auvergne in the 13th century.
Accompanied by an architect, you will use natural materials (local wood, grass) and traditional techniques. You will build the frame, the semi-underground walls, and the roof made of rolls of grass unrolled over the structure.
In the heart of the Auvergne mountains, you will work in a breathtaking setting on the Capucin peak at an altitude of 1,400 meters. There is no Wi-Fi available on site, and access to the site is by minibus and then along a steep path.
Whether you are passionate about archaeology, curious about history, a seasoned or novice DIY enthusiast, or simply looking for new experiences, your energy and ideas will be welcome.
