Easy and great

The birthplace of General Lafayette (who played a crucial role in the American War of Independence) is here in a tiny Auvergne village.

Lavaudieu is a charming village located in Auvergne, in the Haute-Loire department. Classified among the “Most Beautiful Villages of France”, it is particularly known for its Benedictine abbey founded in the 11th century by Robert de Turlande

This village sits on top of a rocky outcrop. This cliff is the result of a lava flow dated 1.6 million years ago. The basalt organs found in the town are remarkable. They measure more than seven meters in height. This natural curiosity is the result of an unusual volcanic phenomenon. It was a slow cooling that allowed the lava to solidify. It then takes on this characteristic colonnade appearance.

Very cute little village, well renovated and maintained, with a nice set up, both on the cliffs with incredible "basaltic columns", and down by the river. There is a nice bar & restaurant, l'Embuscade, where you need to book ahead if you wanna eat there!

Lavaudieu, literally "the valley of God", is a pretty village on the Senouire. It is built around a Benedictine abbey from the Middle Ages and is labeled "The most beautiful villages in France".

If in Auvergne there are several personalities who have marked history, the Marquis de Lafayette is one of the most important. Both a great craftsman in the American Revolutionary War and a leading figure during the French Revolution, he was born and spent his childhood here. If history buffs choose to visit the castle, the more athletic can take advantage of the nature around the castle to run in the footsteps of the childhood of the “hero of two worlds”.
