Saint-Cyprien was born around an abbey of regular canons of Saint-Augustin which would have been built on the tomb of a hermit called Cyprian. The barbarian invasions forced the monks to surround themselves with ramparts of which the bell tower-dungeon remains a vestige. The village, located near the Dordogne, did not want to see the bridge that linked it to the other bank of the river disappear when it was closed in 1992. Indeed, this bridge has more than 120 years of good and loyal services to its credit at the place called Garrit, which means Oak in the language of Oc. It was witness of so many stories...

In 1814, not far from the church of Redon-Espic, a young shepherdess, Marie-Jeanne Grave, was tending her sheep. She was 14 years old when a lady appeared to him, all dressed in white, wearing shoes held up by blue ribbons and carrying a luminous cross around her neck. The virgin, who will appear to her a second time, asks her to return to the Christian life of her parents, sharecroppers of Mr. Chabannes, mayor of Bezenac, otherwise her father and mother will soon die. Dismissed by her parents and all those around her, she died on 24 November 1814. It was to the place of the apparitions that some of the faithful regularly went. The pilgrimage became an annual event in 1815, on September 8.

Old parish church, located in the cemetery. Formerly known as St. Clair's. Given in 1276 to Saint-Cyprien and became a priory. The choir is limited by two pointed arches with scrolls: the western one falls on piers with backsplashes, the eastern one on engaged columns with carved capitals. The cornice rests on eight modillions carved with animal masks. The apse is seven-sided on the outside, it is pierced by three bays. All around the church there is a cornice with naked modillions. Square bell tower above the choir.

The church in the forest. Nestling deep in the woods and close to a spring which today supplies Saint Cyprien, Castels and Bezenac. It appears to walkers as an abandoned vessel, discreet, bewitching in its green setting. Totally isolated, it is located on a curvilinear relief, hence perhaps its name Rotundo Spino, a rounded spur, unless it is a toponym evoking the broken brush, witness of a medieval clearing. An impression of serenity emanates from it. This building was restored in 2007. Friends visitors, respect this place.

The Altarpiece: listed in the inventory of Historical Buildings, this altarpiece comes from the abbey of Fongauffier which no longer exists.
