History

Jörg and I are both intrigued by history and one of the things we would like to do is eventually research when our house was built and what life was like previously in the village.  We are told to start at the Marie, but they are closed through the 31st (this also means we can't get any recycling bags until then).

At any rate, Jörg was looking around on the internet and came across a couple of photos of the village from the 1880's, including one that pictures our house.

Vendoire 1880 - The Hotel is the building labeled "bar" below


This complex is for sale - anyone want to own an old bar/hotel in a quiet farming village?


Our Street 1880 - We are the second house on the left.
