Gabanelle Fountain
After having crossed the ford at Bergerac, pilgrims going to
Santiago de Compostela went through the parish of St Sernin, of
Jean Vidal in Gabanelle, and stopped at the springs here. They
founded a shelter for pilgrims which, later, became a small
hospice for sick pilgrims.

Saint Laurent of France Stele
This monument, inaugurated at the 9th gathering in 2007, is
dedicated to Saint Laurent of France.
The association Saint Laurent of France, organizes,
alternatively each year, gatherings of cities having Saint
Laurent as a common name.
Beyond the festive atmosphere specific to these great fraternal
meetings, they are the occasion for exchanges and setting-up
projects: creating tourist routes, promoting regional products,
producing a map of the St Laurents in France, exchanges between
associations, youth participation in our actions, etc.
It is an important time of festivities, fraternity and
discovering the cultures and traditions of all the French
regions. |
