Antoine De St-Exupéry's Castle


Just across the road from LFTZ airport, there is this nice little castle that happens to belong to the De Fonscolombe family, which is also closely related to Antoine De St-Exupéry.
That's funny to see the place where the so famous writter spent his youth, among the sheeps and the garrigue. That might be the why of the sheep in "The Little Prince"... who knows.
So here is the picture of that lovely little castle.

Joli château, jolie photo ! On peut en effet se demander si le mouton du Petit Prince n'est pas né des souvenirs d'enfance de St Ex !

Oui, à mon avis il s'est souvenu de ses chers souvenirs d'enfance et de ses moutons !! :-)
