A property of agricultural origin, owned by the family of a former maritime pilot of the Suez Canal, a family from the village of Lourdas.
The name “Saint-Jean” is explained by the fact that the estate has a Byzantine Chapel built in the 17th century, bearing the name of Saint-Jean the Baptist, preacher of the coming of Christ and protector of the shepherds.
To this day, the ruins of the Chapel are hidden behind bushes left voluntarily in the wild. The place is named after Saint John the Baptist, a major figure in Christianity and Islam.
