Also within the castle walls is the 11th-century Romanesque church of Notre-Dame de Surgères. The interior impresses with its sublime simplicity of light stone.

The town housed a castle in the 12th century when the lords of the town played an important political role in the region. Today, there remains the 16th century enclosure, which has been altered several times over the course of the wars. The park of the castle, raised and rich in stories, constitutes a place of rest and pleasant walk.

Lac de Frace is a very pleasant body of water. Trails are laid out there to go around it. Picnic tables and playgrounds for children are available.

Lac de Frace is known for the prehistoric finds made at the site, dating from the Mesolithic and Early Neolithic (10,000 to 4,000 BC). It was actually formed by the extraction of peat from the site during the two world wars, so that the local inhabitants used it as fuel to heat their homes instead of coal.
