History

Farm of mountain type, bearing the inscription 1832. Entrances are made through the gutter walls. The main access for beasts, people and hay is by the south; two entrances to the north allow access to secondary rooms (chicken house, press, stable and sheep shed). The house comprises three levels. A cellar for vegetables and fruit, the ground floor which includes the men's quarters, the space occupied by animals and rooms for agricultural use, the hayloft. A corridor distributes the ground floor rooms with, on the west side, the men's quarters and, on the east side, a first space for animals; in the centre, access to the cellar, access to the hayloft on the upper floor and access to the corridor which crosses the kitchen and leads to the second space for animals and the press. The dwelling section is organised around the kitchen which opens onto two work rooms: a room for the preservation of cheese and butter, and the press towards the back of the house. Two bedrooms are also on the ground floor: the main bedroom, separated from the kitchen by the chimney wall; the other bedroom is heated by the stable. The first space reserved for animals is made up of stables. The second space comprises the stable and sheep shed. The upper level is occupied by the hayloft.
