Saint-Martin-Valmeroux

Saint-Martin-Valmeroux is a charming village with a population of 800, at an altitude of 650 metres, nestling in the lush greenery of the Maronne valley. Former Bailliage of the Monts d'Auvergne between Mauriac and Aurillac. Remarkable historic centre. Saint-Martin-Valmeroux is a charming village with a population of 911, at an altitude of 650 metres, nestling in the lush greenery of the Maronne valley. A former Bailliage (bailiwick) of the Monts d'Auvergne located on the CD 922 between Mauriac and Aurillac, the commune of Saint-Martin-Valmeroux, associated with Saint-Rémy-de-Salers, has many treasures from the past (14th-century church, houses with turrets, barris and barriades, three-measure grain market, St-Pôl and Vezou chateaus, etc.) but is resolutely modern in its outlook... Saint-Martin-Valmeroux - This is a market town with key public services (police station, state and private schools, post office, first-aid/rescue centre, rural home for the elderly) and private services, particularly in the health sector. The town also has a large, dynamic and constantly evolving craft, industrial and commercial fabric (Isotoner has its head office here, as St-Martin also owes its prosperity as a former glove-making centre) and is also a pleasant place to stay (campsite with twenty chalets, motorhome stations, hotel and numerous holiday gites). There's plenty to do in the area, including a heated swimming pool, city park, fitness area, tennis court, riding centre, trout fishing, gymnasium, hiking trails and leisure centre, for tourists and locals alike, who can take advantage of the large number of associations (around 20, many of them in the sporting and cultural fields). Worthy of note: the Nozières mineral fountain and its healing water, rich in iron bicarbonate and carbonic acid. The church, a local specimen of Middle Age architecture which is much admired today, replaces its 12th century Romanesque predecessor of which only the bell tower remains, a massive 18 metre high square tower. The porch, as well as the small door set back to the left of the entrance, are Gothic in style. The upper part of the portal features three painted wooden statues dating from the 17th century. On the facade of the bell tower, there is a ‘boy with thorn’ sculpture eroded by time. Inside, on the Gothic keystone of the choir is a shield bearing the arms of Jacques Comborn, Bishop of Clermont and Lord of St Martin, who was responsible for restoring and transforming the building in the 15th century. Also on display there are the 17th century gilded wooden reliquary bust and a painting by Gustave de Lassalle-Bordes, both dedicated to the patron saint of the commune.

Saint-Cernin

Saint-Cernin enjoys the privilege of being not too far from urban life but with the genuine possibility of savouring the priceless pleasures of country life. Our village is the southern gateway to the Pays de Salers. Saint-Cernin is the first rural village encountered as you leave the Aurillac urban centre by the North. It enjoys the privilege of being not too far from urban life but with the genuine possibility of savouring the priceless pleasures of country life. The town's warm welcome and diversity of facilities are proof of its simplicity, increasing its appeal to city dwellers and tourists in search of authenticity. Saint-Cernin, built into the hillside, clings to the western flank of the Cantal volcano. From the Plateau, at the Croix de Saint-Pierre, the view of the Monts du Cantal is superb. The Saint-Cernin valley, carved out by the River Doire, marks the entrance to the Volcanic Natural Park. Picturesque hamlets dot the valley and surrounding plateaux. Saint-Cernin also boasts socio-educational and sports facilities, including a primary school and secondary school, over 25 associations and a rich cultural heritage. The church of Saint-Saturnin, with its 12th-century gable bell tower, features remarkable sculpted modillions and 15th-century wooden stalls from the church of Saint-Chamant. Admire the Château du Cambon, a former stronghold transformed into a pleasure residence, see the ruined 14th-century keep tower of Marze or the Château de Ragheaud, discover the 15th-century stone crosses at Saint-Martin-le-Valois... Saint-Cernin is also the birthplace of Henri Mondor, a member of the Académie Française and the Académie de Médecine, who laid down the modern rules of surgery. There were two churches, one at St Martin Valois and the other at St Cernin. In 2021, a heritage trail will trace its history from the 18th to the 20th century.
