This fountain is situated on a on a walking path named "Lou Camin del Picalhas", starting from the hamlet of Bonneterre. It would have been built by the inhabitants of the hamlets of Campselves and Ajas, in the 1880's or 1890's. This fountain was used by pupils of the school of Bonneterre to keep fresh water between their classroom and the village of Campselves, during high heat days. Every day, children walked on this path to go to school.Bad drained and not enough known, this fountain was restored with the help of the department With a grant, the townhall can restore the fountain. Members of a local association, "Causses et Vallées", will lead the projects, with the material help of the townhall. At the foot of the watering place, a drain has to allow the flow of the water. A cleaning of stones will also take place.The first part of the works took place on september 2016, the 24th, with the contribution of elected people of the village, members of the association "Causse et Vallée", inhabitants of Bonneterre and a child, for the symbolic aspect. Stones of the fountain and the water place were cleaned up and a drain was created. During the spring of 2017, a pavement will be put in front of the fountain to complete this restoration.

The first church of St Saturnin de Lenne, which dominates the Serre valley, was built during the 11th century. It had been reconstructed during the 12th century, then enlarged during the 13th.During the 11th century, Bégon de Calmont gave the churches of St Saturnin and La Roque to the abbey of Conques. Around 1100, monks started to reconstruct the church. But works stopped.During the 13th century, the tower was completed by the building of a bell room lighted by 4 bays and covered by a dome with shale tiles.The 19th century brought numerous transformations : bays were opened in the east end, 2 bays were added between 1852 and 1856. Finally, an architech of Mende proposed to elevate the bell tower and to add a roof light of 8 small columns, of the Neo-Byzantine style.Outside, sculptures represent historiated scenes (birds, horsemen, ...) from the end of the 11th century, in particular on the modillions of the east end and the transept.

In 1988, during the creation of a subdivison, a part of ruins of a important Gallo-Roman villa in activity during the second part of the 1st and the 5th century, was discovered.The remains are the western side of the urban part. The thermal baths, for the owner and his family, are situated in succession, for the coldest to the hotest, as required. People passed by the cold water pool to places heated by the floor. Text from Philippe Gruat, coming from "Al Canton-Campagnac"

Mansion from the 17th century and its pigeon house.Its corners have turrets allowing a defence of the fronts.In 1755, it was one of the most important domain of the region: 4 pairs of oxes, 31 animals with horns, 4 mares, 408 animals which produced wool. The domain produced wheat, rye, barley, oats.

Sur le Pic de Mus, en regard du Roc des loups, et en contrebas de la statue de la vierge, un second projet a été réalisé avec les élus locaux, le paysagiste concepteur Xavier Bonnet de A3-PAYSAGE et Emmanuel Hebrard, tailleur de pierre. L’idée ? Un bloc basaltique sera creusé, telle une géode, pour permettre des pauses méditatives face au paysage ou sous le ciel étoilé, et offrir un nouveau lieu d’harmonie avec la nature. Sur la commune de Saint Laurent de Muret, le Pic de Mus propose une vue panoramique remarquable sur un promontoire marqué par un volcanisme singulier sur l’Aubrac. L’accès au sommet est relativement court, permettant une sortie facile à destination des habitants et curieux. Le site présente une charge religieuse, historique et matérielle forte. La présence d’un hôtel sur un plateau en contrebas du sommet, et d’une statue de vierge ainsi qu’une table d’orientation en haut, apporte de la symbolique au site.La GéODE de l’Aubrac est disposée sur le chemin menant à ce sommet et est gravée aux noms des lieux emblématiques de la commune de Saint Laurent de Muret, renforçant le lien entre patrimoine local et création contemporaine.

"Hourtous means 'small gardens' In Occitan. This cliff promontory is a private and designed space, and displays the Occitan cross. Let your eyes be drawn down the 400 m plunge to the narrows and then westwards to the Cirque des Baumes topped by the Sublime Point. At mid-slope you can make out the profile of the Woman with a Parasol and her Court, famous dolomite rock formations.” (M.P Leroy-Delmer)

"300 m  from the  hamlet, the ruins of the Château de Planiol dominate a flat area (planiol) of the river, which is 8 m deep here. Then the Romanesque 12th century chapel appears, probably built on the site of a Carolingian oratory. An 'expiatory chapel' has been added, which contains the remains of the martyrs of La Malène. Another chapel is occupied by the Virgin Mary standing in a boat. It is brought out every May for the boatmen's pilgrimage. As for the bridge, it was built in 1856 in the place of a former ford crossed by the Esperelle draille (path for seasonal livestock migration). Because of its scant height, it did not survive the devastating floods of 1875 and 1900.” (M.P Leroy-Delmer)

"Traditionally, a hillclimbing race is held in this small town on the first Sunday in July. The first races were goat races. Marthe marshalled her goats at the bridge, climbed the slope of La Canourgue by herself and then called to them from up there. The goats ran to her. The winner was rewarded with a fragrant bouquet of bartas (box)." (M.P Leroy-Delmer)

“La Malène” means “bad hole”... But for several decades now, it has been more accurate to call it a little jewel that delights tourists. What is its secret? Using the boats which were once strictly utilitarian, back in the days when the Tarn was a transport and trade route! On 29 December 1952, the Cooperative Society of Boatmen of the Gorges du Tarn was officially created. In 1985, the Cooperative became a Worker Cooperative. Once on the water, the boatmen will help you discover sites that can only be seen and approached by boat, such as La Momie Cave, or the Woman with a Parasolrock formation above La Croze. That's at least two good reasons to treat yourself to this journey by water accompanied by the boatmen of La Malène.

"On the square in the hamlet of Rieisse, you'll be able to admire a communal oven. The gable of the house right next to it has gutters which lead into a former cistern inside. All the rainwater from the roof converged on this tank, inside the kitchen, via gutters that were made first of wood and later of zinc. The cistern has a depth of 2 to 5 m and a capacity of 10,000 to 30,000 litres. When the foundations of the sheepfold were dug, Roman pottery for keeping resin was found. Indeed, whenever pine trees were felled, the resin was extracted and sent to the coast, where it was used to caulk boats. (M.P Leroy-Delmer)
