This beautiful Voie Verte (Greenway), created in 2008, 2009 and 2010, connects Villeneuve-sur-Lot to Casseneuil. It follows the footprint of two old railway lines on the outskirts of Villeneuve-sur-Lot and at the entrance to Casseneuil. Between these two sections, it is a pretty path that was created along the stream "La Masse".

Its foundation dates back to around 1161 or 1180, following a donation from Rainfroid I, lord of Montpezat, before his departure for the Third Crusade. It was used to collect funds (notably through tolls on the Lot) to finance actions in the Holy Land. After the dissolution of the Order of the Temple in the early 14th century, the commandery was transferred to the Order of the Hospitallers. It was they, particularly under the impetus of commander Bernard Gros at the end of the 15th century, who rebuilt the site and revived the village's activity after the ravages of the Hundred Years' War.

The church was first the castle chapel Saint-Barthélemy, an annex of Saint-Orens. It became a parish church under the dedication of Saint Orens in 1763 when it was ceded by the Duke of Aiguillon. The building was constructed in the first third of the 16th century, as suggested by the presence of the coat of arms of Charles de Montpezat, lord of Laugnac and Dolmayrac, on the keystone of the choir. Two chapels were built on the Epistle side in the second half of the 17th century. In 1650[1], Mr. Rigade or Régal, a judge, obtained authorization to build the south chapel near the choir, according to the minutes of a pastoral visit made in 1705. The south chapels were remodeled around 1850. The east-side chapel was then vaulted, according to Durengues. A repair of the vaults was planned in 1859. In 1890, a bay was added to the nave as well as the bell tower. The building has been listed as a historical monument since February 22, 1927[2],[3].
