Description

This valley of the river Lède, dominated by oak and chestnut trees, let you discover the imposing castle of Gavaudun, the luminous site of Saint-Avit and the priory and the mysterious church of Laurenque. The castle, massive and slender and perched on a rock of 300m long and 40m high, dominates the valley. It is inaccessible from all sides except from the north side where they had dug a trench, and it had a strong position in the valley that links the Agenais to the Périgord. The entrance to the castle goes through a cave followed by a well and a stone staircase. The donjon from the 14th century is 70m high, and is still intact, with its six floors. The stone houses, the wash place and the woods around the village are the attractions of this protected site.
