In the 1950s, a small chapel was built, then enlarged by Father Couppy, and a school. There was even an annex to the town hall. The opening of the asphalt road in 1958 gave new impetus to the village of holiday homes were built, people came to live in their homes in the warm season, leaving them the rest of the year. It was also the time of dream plantations, especially around the Piton des Songes, acacias which were used for the distillation of geranium and also for making charcoal.
