Tourettes

Tourettes
Tourrettes is a perched village (or rather a small town) known as Toretta in medieval times. It was ruled by the Villeneuve de Tourrettes family from 1331 on. I could not find out, how the French neurologist George Gilles de la Tourette the namesake of Tourette syndrome is connected to this village.

The area, near the Côte da Azur, is perfect for family holidays in summer. The tourists will find many campgrounds and many lush "bungalow-style"-hotels with lawns, large trampolins and larger pools.

Gille de la Tourette (le village est TOURRETTES) est né à Loudun, dans la Vienne (département français). Aucun rapport entre les deux !
