The market town : 'Maison Forte'
The market town
It stretches out on the mountain ridge, 137 meters high.
Rocal Hamlet
It deserves its name, since it is built on the plateau, on the
surface of the rock.
There are caves and dug-out shelters, a washing-place and a
low mill.
ROCAL was a mediaeval hamlet, an English garrison later
occupied by the knights of Saint John.
Our “Rosete stone”, a carved lintel from about 1380, testifies
to this.
