We passed by this equipage* in the town square during a visit to Olargues** in 2011. We were there for their annual Fête Médiévale, one of the many events throughout France celebrating European Heritage Days.
[Les Calèche de Monsherie; from my personal collection]
*Close inspection of the sign on the carriage reveals the name of the company Les Calèches de Monshérie but I wasn't able to find them on the internet. A calèche is a light vehicle pulled by one or two horses and seating two or four passengers.
**Officially one of the most beautiful villages in France.
