    • The Carrières de Crazannes are labeled “Échappées Nature”. This unusual site of Saintonge , takes you into the bowels of the earth, to discover the famous "Pierre de Crazannes". It is at the same time an interesting geological visit , in the heart of a natural site . But also an immersion in the history of its exploitation over the ages. Its museum also shows you an original heritage around the quarrying profession , transport and the use of stone. Introductory workshops in sculpture and stone dyeing allow children to experience these artistic activities.

    How anyone could find this visit boring is just fascinating in itself. It is sad to see these old industries dying, or dead even, but they are far from boring. It just goes to show, also, how a minor, possibly overall beneficial change in the law on child labour, can close down a whole industry. I found it all fascinating and witnessing 'nature taking back its own'. David Crawford.
