La Villette is a hamlet of Vaujany, which has experienced many fires, the last of which dates back to the Second World War.
This is why you find houses that look rather recent. In the past the village roofs were thatched and the proximity of the houses caused fires to spread. The only means of heating was by fire. On your left you will find the old communal oven. As it was not possible for each house to have its own oven, the inhabitants used this oven.
If you feel like it, you can visit the hamlet (the hamlet is small, so the visit is short!): you will find the small chapel, the little streets going up and the Côte Belle centre, which welcomes groups and schools. Traditionally, Vaujany is a resort that welcomes young people, just as in the past, children from the welfare system used to live with certain families or only came in the summer to help with the work in the fields, with the animals and with the wood.
Free of charge.
