Conférence : La Révolte de Roure_Villeneuve-de-Berg

Information

Description

During the reign of Louis XIV, a violent protest against tax collectors led the inhabitants of Bas-Vivarais to revolt, under the leadership of Anthoine du Roure.

This uprising was brutally suppressed: villages were pillaged, and the ringleaders were tried and condemned to the galleys, hanging, or breaking on the wheel.
Come and discover this pivotal episode in local history and learn more about this event that profoundly impacted the region.
Admission: please contact the association for details.
