Rue du Bourg (3)

Abstract

Joseph-Samuel Farinet (1845-1880) was a smuggler and counterfeiter from the Aosta Valley who found refuge in Saillon while the Valais policemen were hunting him down. Beyond this arched passageway, we can see a place where he hid, probably with the help of the local population.
