The residence is still occupied by the same family since its origin.

In the square, note the wrought-iron cross depicting the various instruments of the Passion. Although the date inscribed on the granite base is 1800, the cross was actually made in 1750 and hidden during the revolutionary turmoil. It was made by Jean de Séguy, provost from 1745 to 1776. The statue of the Virgin Mary in a red sandstone niche (probably reused) on the façade, rebuilt in the 18th century, is a reminder that the church is dedicated to Notre-Dame de l'Assomption. However, the cult of St Bernard, the monastery's first abbot, quickly developed in the hearts of the first Montsalvy residents. This popular beatification, accepted by the ecclesiastical authorities, led to the dedication of a chapel in the church in 1258. St Bernard is therefore considered the patron saint of the parish (celebrated on the Sunday following 11 October). In the church, discover the exceptional polychrome wooden Christ, listed as a historic monument, the 20th-century ciborium (or baldachin) installed in the Romanesque choir, the shrines containing the relics of St Gausbert and Saint Bernard and two of the four boundary crosses: the cross of St Anne and the cross of Cambon. An adjoining vaulted room houses the Treasure of Sacred Art, a collection of priestly objects from the various churches of the St Joseph en Veinazès parish.

A medieval town founded in the 11th century by the monk Gausbert, who established a sauveté surrounded by 4 crosses, which guaranteed ecclesiastical immunity to those who took refuge there. Montsalvy, a Petite Cité de Caractère® almost a thousand years old, has retained the austere atmosphere of those ancient fortified villages, huddled in on themselves and still imbued with their medieval splendour.

The southernmost river of Cantal is the Lot River. The valley is situated at 200 meters altitude. The weather is mild and shows another facet of the Châtaigneraie. Enjoy the beautiful panoramas (Montmurat, Aubespeyre), discover the history of the medieval castle, go canoeing...

Visit of the medieval fortress of Vieillevie (11th-13th centuries) in July and August. Storytelling tours (in French): Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 5pm. Places are limited, so bookings must be made by text message or e-mail. The castle dominates the Lot Valley from its high towers. It is an authentic defensive fortress: sentry walks, archways, and defensive hoardings. Above the lower rooms carved into the rock, you will discover the large Renaissance rooms with their finely sculpted mullioned windows and their monumental 13th century fireplaces, among the oldest in France.

Panorama of the Goul Valley, the Aubrac plateau and the Mounts of Cantal.

Overlooking the village of Montsalvy, Mount Puy de l'Arbre offers a magnificent natural observatory stretching from the Mounts of Cantal to the Rouergue, passing through the Aubrac Plateau. Near the toposcope, a granite stele reminds us that in 1798, Jean-Baptiste Delambre and Pierre Méchain measured here an arc section of the Paris meridian between Dunkirk and Barcelona. This arc measurement served as the basis for the original definition of the metre. This stele is therefore a survey marker. Picnic tables.

Lapeyrugue is located South East of the Veinazès natural region, on the foothills of the Southern Châtaigneraie. The village is built on a crest and at the beginning of a path leading to the Goul valley overhanging it.

The site of the Devil’s Rocks has a great geological interest: it is a granite vein present in the commune of Junhac. This makes it one of the rare climbing sites in the Châtaigneraie.

In the Southern part of the Châtaigneraie, in the natural region of Veinazès, Junhac is located between the Auze river and the Combenousse creek. Two hiking paths go through the village and its wonderful landscapes.
