Leaving Bretenoux, we pass through this shaded section, among the trees, before cycling through the surrounding fields.

Bretenoux is a fortified town in the Haut-Quercy region, recognizable by its checkerboard layout and large central square lined with arcades. Located at the confluence of the Cère and Dordogne rivers, it has been a busy trading center since the Middle Ages. Today, its lively streets and well-preserved heritage make it a pleasant stopover between Rocamadour and the valley's castles.

Some of the windows in the nave contain stained glass from the 16th century. Today only fragments remain (restoration in the 1990s). One window shows a crucifixion scene, another Jean II de Castelnau (the father of the church's founder Jacques de Castelnau) in his robes with his protector, John the Baptist, and his wife Anne de Culant with Saint Anne.

Very nice view of the Château Castelnau-Bretenoux.

Perched at the top of the hill, it is here that one expects to see a large castle like this, with this plan which dominates the whole valley.

A beautiful 15th century Catholic church built by order of Pope Julius II. Inside you will find a remarkable stained glass window.

Very nice view of the castle of Castelnau-de-Bretenoux, perched on top of a small hill. It can be visited all year round if you have the courage to go up there! More info: https://www.castelnau-bretenoux.fr/

A little unexpected but a tip castles are nose above the rest.
