Another official tourism website. Good list of restaurants etc. for Charente-Maritime (dep. 17) only. |
 |
Official site of the the town of Rouillac - online! Who would have thought it? |
|
The official site of the Pays Ruffeçois, in which La Bréchoire isn't quite (though nearby Verdille is). Good local stuff: hotels, restaurants etc. But inevitably repeats much that is elsewhere. |
| Charente Ramblers' Association: for proper historical and geographical information. Has something to say about La Bréchoire and the commune of Auge Saint-Médard. We have a medieval fresco in the church at Auge and 'beneficial waters' at Crotet. Quite interesting (if you live there). | |
