Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Maisons sur l'Agoût, « la petite Venise » du Languedoc

La rivière était autrefois le centre vital de la ville. Ces maisons ont été dès le Moyen Âge le lieu d'activité principal des habitants. Ces maisons d'artisans abritaient différents corps de métiers tels que tanneurs, teinturiers, parcheminiers, papetiers et tisserands. Toutes ces maisons ont des bases médiévales dont les ouvertures sont en berceau ou en ogive. Les caves appelées «caoussino» en occitan (littéralement cela signifie usine à chaux) ouvrent sur la rivière et possédaient des lavoirs. Après avoir nettoyé et rincé les peaux dans l'Agout, on les déposait dans les cuves emplies de chaux. Au rez-de-chaussée étaient situés les appartements des ouvriers puis ceux des maîtres. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castres#Maisons_sur_l'Ago%C3%BBt

Houses on the Agout, “Little Venice” of Castres The river was once the vital centre of the city. These houses were since the Middle Ages the main place of activity of the inhabitants. These craftsmen’s houses housed various trades such as tanners, dyers, parchment, paper makers and weavers. All these houses have medieval bases whose openings are in cradle or ogive. The cellars called «caoussino» in Occitan (literally it means lime factory) open onto the river and had wash houses. After cleaning and rinsing the skins in the Agout, they were deposited in the tanks filled with lime. On the ground floor were located the apartments of the workers and those of the masters.
