Alban: Holiday apartments and holiday homes
Culture
The Dolmen d’Alban is also known as “Le palet de Notre Dame”. The Menhir d’Alban also has a second name: “La pierre du Diable”.
The Dolmen d’Alban is considered a large stone slab that originally rested on two long, upright stones. The Menhir d’Alban is approximately 3 metres high and has two so-called cupules on its north-eastern side.
The Église Notre-Dame d’Alban houses a cross classified as Romanesque. The church also contains a gilded wooden Madonna from the 15th century and features Neo-Byzantine frescoes by Nicolas Greschny.
Those choosing Alban as a travel destination may wish to rent a holiday apartment.
