A special architectural gem is the Romanesque church of Saint-Sauveur in Liaucous. It once belonged to the Bishop of Rodez.
According to tradition, it was originally the chapel of the adjacent Château de Liaucous.
Its consecration dates back to 1060.
It is one of the Romanesque buildings in the upper Tarn Valley.
Over the centuries, the interior has been remodeled several times, including the addition of an impressive gallery.
The exterior façade has remained largely unchanged.
