Les Cadrans Solaires de Saint Véran

Historic site and monument, Historic patrimony, Sun dial in Saint-Véran

  • The sundial was the means to read the time in a country where the sun shines 300 days a year!

  • Many dials were painted by Giovanni Francesco Zarbula during the second half of the 19th century. In the last decades, Remi Potey has restored some of them and created others.
    Most of them have a motto, either in Latin, French or dialect.
    There are more than twenty of them in the village and the hamlets of Saint Véran.
