This little town has many delights. But have a care! It also has La Tour des Fripons. It was one of the two towers protecting the entrance to the town. But it did double duty as a prison. Hence the name. A ‘fripon‘ is a ‘knave‘.
Our real objective for today was the Memorial Museum at Linge. Here was somewhere that brought to life one of the many horrifying periods of WWI, in this case high in the Vosges mountains. It’s a tale that needs telling, but not tonight. Expect a post sometime after our return home.
