Very pretty historic center!

A lovely place full of history! We walked along a white path and observed these buildings in a beautiful landscape!

Sunday market

All part of a stunning route we did. The old town, with regeneration effort and also some boarded up churches were so interesting to observe.

Really nice to avoid the traffic, yet a bit boring

Beautiful church with a bench and drinking water point💦. Unfortunately the church was closed.

These wells are aligned on a geological fold characterized by a layer of impermeable clay located under the outcropping limestone. Each well is built above a "cistern" dug into the rock. The wells are therefore independent of each other. The "cisterns" are filled in two ways: by vertical infiltration of rainwater and by lateral flow of water. Here we can see the determination and ingenuity of the Caussenards to capture water that is particularly rare in the region.

Lalbenque is a commune that is part of the regional natural park of the Causses du Quercy. One of its riches is truffles. The main avenue of the small town (rue du marché aux truffles) leaves no room for ambiguity. On the territory of the commune, there are very beautiful wash houses, castles and also gariottes (dry stone huts used as sheepfolds).
