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.
