Fifteen kilometres far away from the city of Limoux
, you will discover a place called Espéraza, a charming village of The Pyrenees of the region of the Aude, which has got more than 2 000 inhabitants.
Just for information, the villagers of Bugarach
(Corbières) settled down at the edge of the Aude, when they returned from captivity in High Silesia, in order to base there the first hatshops.
This town formerly had the first place of "leader" in the world because of its manufacture of hats and also other headgears.
In Espéraza there are two curiosities which are worth the trip and the stay :
Something you must have a look at, the museum of the Hat shop
, and the museum of dinosaurs
. Every year 50 000 visitors are very curious to the charm of paleontology.
But there are more of course activities : you can quietly take advantages of strolls and long hill-walking in these beautiful mountains...
