The Notre-Dame-de-Lasplanques church, once surrounded by a small hamlet, dates back to the 11th century. Its lost location in the Viaur valley and its defensive architecture allowed the population to take refuge there in the event of an attack, in particular from trucking companies (looter soldiers and mercenaries of the Middle Ages).
