Along the back streets of Tonneins, a treasure trove of stunning old houses waiting to be renovated. Tonneins was the tobacco capital of France when tobacco barges would moor along its quays on the Garonne River. Many of us have old tobacco barns, sechoirs, on our property. When the tobacco industry in the town was closed down 15 years ago, 500 jobs were lost & its economy went into decline. Could be so so lovely...
