Heritage, small heritage

Back to the roots...

It is when you get lost, in the middle of the lanes, the countryside and the green fields, that you make the most beautiful encounters: the old covered market halls and pigeon houses tell you the history of a whole country. In the Causses and Gorges de l'Aveyron, at the end of the paths, exploring the valleys, you will find real treasures which have the charm of a heritage that can be discovered off the beaten track.

At Cazals, you will find astonishing interlocking dolmens, and further on, overlooking the Bonnette valley, Notre-Dame des Grâces and the old Templar commandery at Lacapelle-Livron. At the bend in the road, you will find the Varen castle and its Romanesque chapel, not forgetting the Bosc cave which opens a passageway into the bowels of the Causse.

The churches of our territory

Full of charm

At Notre-Dame des Graces, enjoy the view. At Notre-Dame de Livron, the atmosphere of the sanctuary, the magnificence of Saint-Pierre à Varen and the wild little detours at Puech Mignon, Notre Dame de Lugan, the church at Féneyrols and Saint-Symphorien.

Our halls

Places of life, of reunion but also of trade!

The one in Caylus was used as a model for many of the region's covered market halls, and its grain measuring scales have been preserved. The covered market hall in Lacapelle-Livron still has its 16th-century roof structure and a beautiful lauze roof. The one in Saint-Antonin is the centre of the market, which has a long-standing reputation.
