Fence between very old and very young... HFF

Fence between very old and very young... HFF
La "Tour aux Raines" faisait partie des remparts de la ville construits sur ordre de Saint Louis à partir de 1250. Elle doit son nom aux grenouilles qui coassaient sur les bords du fleuve Vire tout proche.

The "Frog Tower" was part of the ramparts of the city built by order of Saint Louis from 1250. It owes its name to the frogs that croaked on the banks of the river Vire nearby.

Thanks Steve. It was also funny that this old tower's name is "Frog Tower", because a little further back there was a huge frog for the kids to climb on...

Thanks Herb, the fence is there to prevent the kids to play on the old ruins which may be dangerous. HFF and have a sunny weekend.

Danke Tanja, ich fand's nur schade, dass gerade keine Kinder da gespielt haben, als ich fotografierte, das wäre dann das Pünktchen auf dem "i" gewesen... Ein sonniges Wochenende wünsch ich dir.

A great contrast, I don't think the modern will last so long as the old ! I hope you are having a HF and that your weekend is a good one Christa

Ein schöner Ort für einen Spielplatz. Der Zaun dient sicher zum Schutz des Turms ;-)

Ein wundervoller Kontrast zwischen alt und neu, unschuldigem Kinderspaß und mittelalterlichem Trutz! So einen Spielplatz hätte ich mir auch gewünscht! HFF Christa!

Ich auch Karsten - und ich wäre da garantiert über den Zaun gestiegen und in den Turm rein (und dann hätte ich wieder mal Schelte bekommen ;-))
