Ancien connecting road from Saint-Flour to Aurillac
Description
The Chaussée de Vigouroux is a part of the former communication road wich connected Saint-Flour and Aurillac in the department Cantal. In the 18th century it took 5 days on foot to make this way.
The old road begins 1 km after the village Vigouroux on the left of the D 57, goes down to the little river Hirondelle, crossed by the a remarkable ancien stone bridge, and joins 250 m later again the D 57 (indication signs).
Today, the bridge has to be restored. This project benefits from the help of the Mission Stéphane Bern and the Fondation du Patrimoine.
