“Vivo lo St Marsaut!”
In early July, the peaceful old bridge district comes alive in Saint-Léonard de Noblat for three days of festivities dedicated to Saint Martial! On the first evening, at dusk, a ceremony takes place on the old stone bridge: the election and crowning of the king(or queen!) 👑
Accompanied by his subjects, the new king completes a brandon-lit ascent of the Clovis tree hill overlooking the small medieval town. Heave ho! The slope is steep, but you’ll be rewarded with a nice panorama! 🌳
DID YOU KNOW?
Located at the foot of the hill, the little chapel dedicated to Saint Martial is only open on Saint Martial’s Day. Take the opportunity to visit this charming little church!
