A ride in the footsteps of Alexis de Tocqueville – Alexis de Tocqueville Association for saving Tocqueville's church

Saturday July 29 saw the 13th edition of our annual discovery walk. Forty hikers gathered in the Tocqueville’s castle driveway for a 7km walk around the village under somewhat capricious weather.

Let’s take a look at the walk with the shots taken by Jean-François, our photographer.

See you in 2024 for another ride!

In brief

The goal of the Association is to help Tocqueville’s Municipality restore the church by bringing funds that come from donations and events earnings.

The Association et the Municipality have established a partnership with the “Fondation du Patrimoine”, a French organization in charge of savegarding heritage.

Each year the Association organizes several events, including a Book Fair on July 14th and a hike « in Alexis de Tocqueville’s footsteps » on the last saturday of July.

The annual membership fee is 5 euros.

Thanks for you support !
