Epeigné-les-Bois 1 Emmanuel Macron 0

As usual the commune of Epeigné-les-Bois (Indre-et-Loire) will once again have the honour to kick off the Bastille Day celebrations on Saturday 13th July at 7.30 pm. This year marks the 230th anniversary of the start of the French Revolution.

The rest of France will attempt to catch up the following day.....

A long time back now when we visited with Brian & Christine; good to know the village still celebrates in style!; 24 July 2019 at 10:34
