Once a rural dwelling, in 1917 this house was used as a police station for the Americans stationed in the village, and then as the local distillery. After being acquired by the local council in 1980, it was transformed in 1984, with the help of the newly-formed "Sports et Loisirs" association (created in 1978) and volunteers, into a Maison du Peuple (People's Centre) for cultural activities and a kitchen. The following year, the town council fitted out a multi-purpose hall in its extension and in 1988, the barns were demolished to create the large covered hall with a courtyard in between, which was not covered until 2001, when the square was paved. Since then, the complex has been used for all the local public and cultural events.
No visits: private site visible only from the outside.
