The Wash House
A fine example of cut stone, with a constant supply of water.

Former estate and spring
One of the oldest properties in the parish. In days gone by, processions would set off every 15 August,
at the spring.

Saint-Palais Church
A 12th-century church, altered in the 14th century, and largely demolished by the Protestants.
Inside, there is a beautiful 17th-century altarpiece made of natural wood, not to mention several listed architectural features.

The Hosanna Cross
Standing on the site of the old cemetery, it served as a place of worship during the Revolution, as it was forbidden to pray in churches.

Former boys’ school.
Nowadays, it is the village hall.
