Opis
For 24 years, volunteers from all over the world have been working to preserve the remains of the Duc de Lesdiguières castle. Will you be the next to join the adventure? Set in idyllic mountain scenery, this 16th-century château has been listed as a Historical Monument since 1978. In 2000, a local association was created to safeguard the building's historical, architectural, and cultural memory. The Duc de Lesdiguières - the building's illustrious patron - was the last Constable of France. This military figure is known for his involvement in the Wars of Religion, as well as for his commitment to the construction and development of roads, bridges, and dikes to prevent flooding in the region. He had this château built between 1571 and 1580, but after his death, it was abandoned and looted during the French Revolution. Nowadays the various works we are organizing on this site are designed to consolidate the ruins of this precious work of architecture while enriching its history.
Zakwaterowanie, wyżywienie i transport
You will be accommodated in individual tents in a campsite at an altitude of 950 m. The site will be equipped with a large tent that will house the kitchen as well as the group's collective meeting place during the stay. You'll have access to sanitary facilities, a barbecue, a petanque court, and Wi-Fi. Here, we pay attention to our food to reduce our environmental impact: we eat local as much as possible and reduce our meat consumption to twice a week. Daily life is organized collectively: menus (vegetarian, vegan diets, etc.), shopping, activities, and so on.

Each day, two members of the group will take turns preparing meals for the team; the menu will be defined in advance. You'll work on-site during the morning, Monday to Friday. Generally speaking, the work involves masonry, preparing tools and meals.
