This medieval village, nestled at the confluence of the Lot and Coussane rivers, is dominated by an imposing castle that belonged to the ancestors of former President Giscard d'Estaing. Its Gothic bridge, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and its St. Fleuret church complete a monumental ensemble of exceptional beauty.
