Project:
The village of Artonne is rich of a very important built heritage, including listed monuments witnessing
the importance of the borough during the Middle Age. There is also a remarkable collection of
mansions and private castles, many dovecotes, vineyard huts, a network of fountains and crosses. As
one of 16 villages in the Auvergne region listed as remarkable, Artonne competes for the "Most
beautiful villages in France" and "Small town of character" labellings.
The municipality is in a heritage restoration process, in order to safeguarding the vestiges of its past,
the showcase for its residents and visitors and improve the aesthetic appearance of the town. To do
so, the people open the doors of their village for the first time to international volunteers. They are
waiting for you impatiently!
Work:
You will begin the restoration of a typical lime kiln. This one is abandoned for many years, vegetation
has invaded the building and the furnace collapsed. You will clean the surroundings of the site, unweed the wall around the ovens, then you will consolidate the beautiful stone entry arch. Depending
on the time remaining, you will also undertake the restoration of the furnace chimney. Accompanied
by a technical instructor, you will learn traditional building techniques using local stone and lime
mortar.
Accommodation and food:
Sleeping in two-places tents around the stadium of the village. Access to sanitation (shower and
toilet), the locker room and cooking space will be provided for the group of volunteers. Meals can be
taken outside when the weather is nice and under a marquee installed on site. In case of rain, you can
use the multipurpose room located in the town. The group will be sharing the cleaning chores and
preparing meals together. The budget will be allocated to the group leader and you will participate in
the preparation of dishes using good products from the market and local producers.
