This photo was taken by David Callan
in Monflanquin, Aquitaine, France in October 2003
In 1152, Eleanor of Aquitaine married King Henry II of England.
This made Aquitaine part of England and it remained so until 1453.
Many of the beautiful towns of this area are called Bastides.
They were actually English towns that returned to France in 1453.
