The old Google search. I had searched it when I first saw your post, but at first I thought the building wasn't the same. Then I searched every "kayak and canoe in France" I could. The river needed to have a low water level and not be wide. I was about to quit, but I decided to take a closer look to the first similar image I found. I needed to check the roof, the windows and the bottom of the wall. I went to Google maps and move to the intersection. Then, I compared everything.
