Beautiful city center of Gramat!

The Cazelle du Puy is a restored dry-stone hut located on the heights of Grèzes. It once served as a shelter for shepherds and farmers working on the plateau. It is easily reached on foot from the village, through a landscape typical of the Lot.

The Benedictine monastery of Marcilhac is now only a ruin, but is still absolutely worth seeing. Only remnants remain (12th century). Several imaginatively designed Romanesque capitals can be admired in the chapter house.

There is something magical about looking out over the valley and cliffs from the vantage point at the top of the road leading into the village.

In the town there is a large former Augustinian abbey from the 13th century: Notre-Dame de Val Paradis, which is worth a visit (a historic monument since 1925). It is already the third foundation (first foundation in 1169).

Nice village to stroll through

There's a beautiful signposted circular trail around Espédaillac (approx. 1 hour). Panels explain notable houses, fountains, etc., providing a good understanding of this town on the Causse de Gramat.

Quaint little stone village, typical of the Quercy area, with a few cafes, bars and restaurants.
