very beautiful, winding old town with many small and large squares

Beautiful town with old buildings and the end of my stage from Le-Puy-en-Velay to Figeac ... Way of St. James 2024

Many centuries ago, our ancestors discovered the possibility of harnessing the power of the elements - which on the one hand could be helpful and useful, but on the other hand could also be a threat as untamed forces of nature - for various purposes and thus be able to do without human or animal muscle power. Mills like these are a good example of the human engineering skills of earlier generations: the heavy millstones used to grind grain into corn or press oil, for example, could be powered by the wind or - as here - water.

Beautiful asphalt road, in the Rance valley, between Saint-Étienne-de-Maurs and Roannes-Saint-Mary. Numerous signs, intended for cyclists, announcing the difference in altitude have been installed on the shoulders. In the fall, watch out for chestnuts on the road!

A nice city with many beautiful buildings.

the staff at la bicycletterie were really thoughtful, and came to the door to help so I wouldn't have to leave my bike.

Figeac is home to the Champollion museum. Jean Francois Champollion was the decipherer of Egyptian hieroglyphs and was born in Figeac on 23 December 1790. The old town of Figeac has plenty of interesting architecture, numerous restaurants, cafes and hotels.
