A really beautiful market square surrounded by arcades. The church of St-Barthélemy was built in the 13th century and was heavily modified and enlarged in the 16th century.
Many of the facades date from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance. Most are beautifully renovated.
Lauzerte is located on a hill and can be seen from afar. It was a defensive situation in the Middle Ages. During the Hundred Years' War, this place was expanded into a fortified village (bastide). Lauzerte was an important guard post on the route between Cahors and Moissac in the 12th century.

The elevated village of Lauzerte, classified as one of the most beautiful villages in France and a stopover on the route to Santiago de Compostella, dominates the valleys and hills of the Quercy Blanc. Nicknamed the Toledo of Quercy, this medieval bastide, founded in 1241 by the Count of Toulouse, is home to a beautiful square with cornières in its city center, surrounded by old stone houses with wooden facades. At one of the ends, a surprising work of art – the curled corner – gives a particularly original touch to the whole! Next door, the Saint-Barthélemy Church deserves a visit for its beautiful Baroque altarpiece in gilded wood.
