Borce - Hôpital de Saint Jacques

20 Dec 2013 1 237
The fomer "hôpital" in Borce is a great place to take a break. It now serves as a museum and is centered around this modern stele. The walls are covered with grafitti. Some of them depict soldiers in uniforms. The soldiers have been here in the early 19th century, when Napoleon´s Grande Armée crossed the Pyrenees and made a bloody war on Portugal and Spain. Next to the old hôpital is the "Hospitalet de Borce", a modern "gîte d'étape"
