Remarkable view of the Cère gorges on the borders of Corrèze, Lot and Cantal.

This chapel in the cemetery is home to the Tomb of the Dead. The superb polychrome stone sculpture was created by an unknown 15th-century artist. This stone masterpiece is enhanced by an emotionally-charged sound and light show, narrated by Jean Piat.

A medieval town on the right bank of the Dordogne, Beaulieu has been dubbed "one of the most beautiful villages in France", thanks to its mild climate, ideal for growing strawberries. Beaulieu's main attraction is its remarkable Saint-Pierre abbey church, whose portal, a masterpiece of Romanesque art depicting the return of Christ at the end of time, is comparable to that of Moissac. Stroll through the narrow streets, compare the turreted facades, decorated with medallions and cherubs, like the house of Adam and Eve, and dream of the Chapelle des Pénitents and its bell-wall reflected in the waters of the Dordogne. Nearby, you can board a gabare from May to October, to relive the epic story of the gabariers who sailed down to Libourne to deliver their loads of wood for the Bordeaux cooperage.
