Éclaron is an important and very nice village in the Haute-Marne. Éclaron did not start yesterday, the Roman roads were found. Éclaron but not resting on his past, he moves, and allows its residents and visitors not to get bored one second. The Lac du Der is two steps, thus Éclaron offers residents and tourists a pleasant sandy beach, a marina, a circle of rowing, sailing clubs including four school departmental Sailing .
An eye on the past, however: the town has had many industrial activities: extraction of firewood in the great forest of Der, charcoal blast furnaces, sugar, agricultural machinery plant have succeeded. In 1921, a factory installed tan and dyes, and in 1946 a manufacturer of furniture and metalwork, closed in 1980. The municipality does not give up, however, the rural activity is there. The cattle, cereal crops and sugar beet industry is very important.
Attend a festival is incredibly gratifying to Éclaron; launch balloons, races for all ages ...
SIGHTSEEING
To see: the village is large enough, looks like a small town, with calm and gentle way of life of the campaign, it has a small square, an imposing Gothic church.
Depending on the season and the direction from which you arrive, you will be greeted by the sand martins that nest on the walls of earth mounds. Do not touch, they are protected.
A dream for walkers and hikers, a circuit well maintained through the woods and meadows. It runs along the canal, passes over a canal bridge (very interesting) and follows a towpath.
The fountain in Saint Laurent, she was the miracle? Maybe not, but the ancients had respect for the water they knew indispensable. To keep the source that Mother Nature had given them every year on Ascension Day, a procession took place, led by the parish priest who blessed the source. The beautiful spring sang so well among the reeds and water if fresh was and is so pure, the villagers decided to increase its protection by placing a cross. First wood, it was replaced by a stone cross. A bit cleared, it is there for registrations of interest to you to decipher!
Fishermen: you want to fish for perch, gudgeon and other fish, nice corners abound. The silence, the greenery, the song of the river the "Blaise" which turns the sky or foliage is reflected, gives you something to dream up your folding.
If you come in autumn, clouds fantastic, loud, screaming, flying animate the sky: the cranes that come from Scandinavia en route to Africa will make a stop. This is a great event not to be missed. It is not ten not, by the thousands beautiful travelers arrive. Cry the crane crunches, shrieks, trumpet. Did you know? It is a wading bird. Many other birds spotted the lake, the white-tailed eagle, heron, swan, greylag goose, teal, osprey ... who display their coming throughout the year.
