The medieval city of Treignac

Built at the foot of the Monédières, in the gorges of the Vézère, Treignac is a medieval city with its 13th-century bridge, its churches and chapels, its grain market, its 15th-century panoramic tower, the twisted bell tower of its Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix Chapel and its half-timbered houses. A popular stopover for pilgrims from Compostela on their way to Rocamadour, it is also renowned for its white water, which makes it a world-class canoeing and kayaking spot.
