Easter 2025: the country egg hunt at Cueillette de Compans (77)

The Easter egg hunt is a joyful, gourmet tradition, particularly popular with children. It has its origins in both Christian and pagan customs. In France, legend has it that bells returning from Rome on Easter Sunday lay eggs in gardens as a symbol of renewal and life. This custom, which began in the 19th century, has been transformed into a fun activity in which children go in search of chocolate eggs hidden in nature or at home.
