The Gîte «La Poudrerie» (also known as La Poudrerie de Lovegnée) is a unique, historic holiday home located in the deep, wooded valley of the river Solières. The name already reveals its history: "poudrerie" is the French word for gunpowder factory. What is now a peaceful holiday home was once the beating and dangerous heart of an industrial gunpowder production.
