Association Sioule et Patrimoine
Non-profit organization. Since 1992, it has endeavored to promote the natural, historical and architectural riches of the Sioule valley and works to safeguard the Fades railway viaduct.
Through exhibitions, conferences and media operations, Sioule & Patrimoine has set itself the main objective of acting for the promotion, preservation and enhancement of the wealth of heritage in the Sioule valley.
With this in mind, the association has given itself the following priority missions:
- To raise public awareness of the problem of non-maintenance of the giant Fades railway viaduct (highest railway bridge in France), due to the shutdown of the operation of the Lapeyrouse-Volvic line;
- To seek realistic solutions to find a new vocation for it for the purposes of its rehabilitation, which conditions its safeguard.
The association has a large documentary collection on the entire Sioule basin. It publishes an annual review, "L’Echo de la Vallée", which reports on the actions carried out and includes in-depth articles on local heritage. It organizes exhibitions and slide shows (DVDs on the history of the Fades viaduct) and offers on-site visits on request.
