Tips from the Community
The church was first the castle chapel Saint-Barthélemy, an annex of Saint-Orens. It became a parish church under the dedication of Saint Orens in 1763 when it was ceded by the Duke of Aiguillon. The building was constructed in the first third of the 16th century, as suggested by the presence of the coat of arms of Charles de Montpezat, lord of Laugnac and Dolmayrac, on the keystone of the choir. Two chapels were built on the Epistle side in the second half of the 17th century. In 1650[1], Mr. Rigade or Régal, a judge, obtained authorization to build the south chapel near the choir, according to the minutes of a pastoral visit made in 1705. The south chapels were remodeled around 1850. The east-side chapel was then vaulted, according to Durengues. A repair of the vaults was planned in 1859. In 1890, a bay was added to the nave as well as the bell tower. The building has been listed as a historical monument since February 22, 1927[2],[3].

The Sainte-Colombe church has watched over the village since the Middle Ages. Originally Romanesque, it was extensively remodeled in the 19th century, but retains a remarkable bell tower housing a bell dated 1525, now listed as a historic monument.

The caves located in Sainte Colombe de Villeneuve are natural, shaped 25 million years ago by an underground river. They allow us to understand the geology of the area. Three rocks are found in the caves: limestone, in which they were carved out; clay, which is insoluble and forms plugs or deposits; and finally calcite, which is calcium carbonate that saturated water deposits as it evaporates. This material is the component of stalactites, stalagmites, columns, draperies, and flowstones. This cave consists of seven chambers: the Puits chamber, the Ratepenado chamber, the Ronde chamber, the Salle des Colonnes chamber, the Marboutin chamber, the Salle de la Statue chamber, and the Salle de la Source chamber. The constant temperature is around 14°C all year round.

Two square towers are connected by curtain walls which contained a village. The square south-east tower had a staircase housed in a round turret, applied against the north facade. On the ground floor, to the south, a door in broken arch equipped with a portcullis, gave access to a vaulted room in broken barrel
