Support the restoration of heritage in the ‘Most Beautiful Villages of France’ with the Fondation du Patrimoine
Get involved in heritage restoration with the Fondation du Patrimoine. Behind every bell tower, every stone and every cobbled alleyway in the Most Beautiful Villages of France lies a story, an identity and a tradition passed down from generation to generation. But this precious heritage is fragile.
Thanks to the Heritage Foundation, everyone can play a part in preserving these shared treasures. From abbeys to small chapels, not forgetting mills, ramparts and houses… dozens of iconic sites in our ‘Most Beautiful Villages of France’ are the focus of urgent restoration campaigns.
Why donate?
Because every donation, however small, helps to:
Preserving the unique character of our villages.
Supporting the local economy, thanks to restoration projects carried out by heritage craftsmen.
Passing on our heritage to future generations.
And for donors, every donation entitles them to a tax deduction.
