From the moon to the tunnel

Description

The only kibbutz that existed in France was set up between 1933 and 1935 in a farm in the village of Jugeals-Nazareth. The Tourmente River rises near Montplaisir at an altitude of 370 metres. After 26 km, it flows into the Dordogne. The Montplaisir tunnel is 2,397 metres long and 100 metres deep, and its construction was problematic because of the many springs along its route. On 10 November 1862 the Brive Capdenac railway line was inaugurated. For several years it was the longest railway tunnel in France. We are in the Second Empire and the post office arrived two years later. At that time the train was used to transport goods, Capdenac being located near Figeac and Decazeville where coal and zinc are found.
