Saint-Meloir-des-Odnes is a quaint little village with a massive church; a church out of proportion to the village's population. In ancient times, it appears the areas wealth was derived from potato farming and the town's wealth demonstrated by this massive church. The church towers over the village.
The village center is a few square blocks.
The town hall, or Marie, as it is called in France.
Today there are traditional homes as well as modern interpretations of the tradition in the village.
This is a similar interpretation. It is directly across the street from the one above.
The next two are pictures of the same house.
This home is a delightful interpretation of modern landscaping, modern design, yet embedded in the traditional Bretton house form. It is now a bed & breakfast.
