500 m from the centre of Villeneuve d'Aveyron
Pretty, well-preserved medieval town
Less than 10 km from the prehistoric cave of Foissac
Take a stroll through the narrow cobbled streets of the village, where you'll be able to see the typical architecture of the bastide towns. Pass under the village's High Gate, also known as the Soubirane Tower, and make your way to the central square, the Place des Conques. Admire the medieval and Renaissance houses with their pointed arches, and enjoy a break in the shade of the chestnut trees. Every Sunday morning, the square plays host to the colourful stalls of the Villeneuve market.
