Picturesque village, village of art and culture, village of books. Don't miss following the Chemin de Saint-Roch for its capitelles (dry stone shelters), its panoramas, the remarkable cypresses of the Chapelle Saint-Roch.

This small, ancient abbey is located just a few kilometers off the cycle path on the Canal dei MIDI. It was founded as a Benedictine monastery in the 8th century, but became a canonry in the 14th century when it was elevated to a diocese and the abbot was ordained bishop. The origins go back to Saint-Papoul, who came here as a student of Saint-Sernin of Toulouse and was martyred. Although it is in dire need of renovation, it is still worth a visit. Less crowded with tourists, it impresses with its stonemasonry by the Master of Capestany and its quiet atmosphere.
