Tips
High on the road from Cahors to Saint-Cirq Lapopie, nestled in the cliffs, lies the English castle of Bouziès. You can see fortifications from the 11th and 12th centuries, anchored in the limestone rock. The Château des Anglais served as a refuge to protect the population in case of attack.The interior is not open to visitors. View of the castle from the road or the metal bridge of Bouziès.

One of the most popular photo motifs in the Lot Valley. It's incredible how this structure was built into the rock and is accessible!
