description About

On October 26, 1831, fishermen discovered the body of an old man murdered on the bank of the Allier. This is the start of the infamous "red inn" affair. Located between Clermont-Ferrand and Aubenas, in the hamlet of Peyrebeille, the inn of the Martin couple was the theater. The murders - real or supposed - that they committed with their servant, Rochette, ignited the minds of the time and inspired, since then, novelists and filmmakers.
