GARRIEUX

" Garrieux is a locality of Salses, near the pond. Nowadays it is a hamlet of ten houses, most of which are inhabited. A Romanesque chapel, perfectly preserved, stands under Pines"

Before the Covid crisis, the Salses festival committee organized a great historical show at Pentecost, with costume, sound and light, telling the story of Garrieux which was at the time a large rural Roman estate. We keep our fingers crossed that you too may experience these incredible festivities very soon.
