This pretty town on the edge of the Lot has many curiosities, starting with its town hall which has a unique neo-Moorish architecture. The building is called Château Solar after the name of the family who transformed it. This impressive structure draws inspiration from both the Alhambra in Granada and the Mosque in Cordoba.A very beautiful fountain with spring water jets built in 1859 is also visible on the Place des Halles.This village is at the forefront of innovation since in 1999, the town built the first river port on the Lot.Castelmoron means "the castle of the Moors". This name refers of course to the castle Solar.The city has a beautiful beach close to the main bridge.
