Car boot sale of Viala-du-Pas-de-Jaux

In April 2025, the Car boot sale of Viala-du-Pas-de-Jaux brought together locals and visitors in this small Hospitaller village on the Larzac plateau in Aveyron. At the foot of the imposing 15th-century fortified granary tower, private stalls offered a good variety of second-hand items in a warm, village atmosphere.

The causse spring provided an ideal setting for this treasure hunting day: green lawns, crisp air at 700 meters altitude, and panoramic views of the Causses and Cévennes. The exhibitors, from the village and neighboring towns of Sainte-Eulalie-de-Cernon, La Cavalerie, and Tournemire, offered old tableware, books and magazines about the region, clothing, children's toys, trinkets accumulated over the years, and small furniture. The spirit was that of an authentically rural car boot sale, where conviviality takes precedence over commerce.

The Car boot sale of Viala-du-Pas-de-Jaux returns in April 2026. Lovers of treasure hunting in Templar country are invited to discover this spring event in one of the most beautiful fortified villages of the Larzac.
