Location History
A part of the history of Breil-sur-Roya is staged during the famous festival “A Stacada” (coming from the breillois «attach, tie up»), a historical reconstitution that commemorates the abolition of the right of cooking. It is one of the oldest traditions of the County of Nice, which has become a symbol of protest against all forms of servitude.
