Fortified manor houses

It is often during your walks in the middle of nature or a natural area, far away from the roads, at the end of the path…that you will end up in front of a porch, a door from the 17^th century, a bread oven, an old bridge, a school, a barn entrance…. or maybe in front of the house where the famous French writer Albert Camus was living during World War II.
