It’s a bit of an overcast morning and later in September than when we normally visit this area of France.
We are not quite sure what to expect. Will there be fewer vendors, less shoppers? Looking out from our windows the section of the market in Place de la Liberté it is full house so I’m guessing we won’t be disappointed as we venture throughout the town checking out the market stalls.
Town has been relatively quiet since we arrived on Tuesday.
As you can see in the photo below ... the town is busy with many, many people looking, socializing and shopping at the various market stalls. We found many delicious, fresh goodies and were spoiled for choice.
I can’t wait for our local Farmers Market to be in full swing later this Spring.
And that’s a wrap for today’s market, the vendors have packed up and the commune workers are hard at work cleaning the streets,
Sunday we enjoyed an alfresco lunch at La Quattrocento in the Place des Neuf Jets on a sunny day.
A shared, scrumptious pizza, salad, some cold Rosé and a crémé Catalan with two spoons.
Then it was time for a Sunday afternoon stroll around town and today we visited the Saint Pierre Church.
Then it was time for a Sunday afternoon stroll around town and today we visited the Saint Pierre Church.
Saint Peter’s is a Roman Catholic church. Believed to been first built in 814.
The church was built and rebuilt several times from the 11th to the 18th centuries.
In 1998 the building was declared a national historical monument.
The Church is located in the narrow, back streets of the center of Cerét within its own square surrounded by beautiful olive trees.
The water was running in the fountain today! We wandered back to the apartment and enjoyed the late sunshine from the balcony.
The blue, blue skies ...
That’s a wrap for this weekend in Cerét.
