During the Wars of the Vendée hundreds of Vendéens sought refuge in the heart of the Foret de Grasla near Les Brouzils. A trip to this forest, in the heart of the Vendéen bocage, will enable one to discover the unique life of the families that took refuge to escape from the "Colonnes infernales" of General Turreau in 1794.
