What do you know about Salt lines?


France is covered with a network of salt lines, so called because of the way in which those towns that are on the lines have mineral salt spas close by. The Opening Space retreat, is a couple of kilometres away from one such place, that of Aize.


Aize is a small hamlet which is immaculately kept, witness this is in the state of the church. The settlement dates back to pre-Roman times and is perhaps a link to the Roman involvement in salt lines or navigation lines for 'Hal' Greek for Salt.
