Place Bleech and Old Town

Small valley town centre with old civic buildings and traces of textile history.

Place Bleech is the small centre below the castle, where Larochette's old civic buildings, narrow streets, and former textile-town identity are easiest to read. The town promenade route points out the old town hall, Manoir Roebé, fortified towers, and a washing fountain.

It is not a museum-piece old town. The appeal is the scale: village streets, castle rock, and wooded valley all pressed close together.
