Since the limestone soil of the Causses allows rain to run off immediately, numerous rainwater basins are built in the villages of the plateau.

A 'casselle' with a spring

Highlight • Structure

This casselle is located along a route with information boards about the historical use of the landscape. In this region are many of these dry stone huts that were built by farmers in the late 18th and 19th centuries. They used them as a shelter for cattle, chicken coop or storage place for their tools. A hole had been dug in this particular casselle to create a spring. Not much water is available on the dry limestone plateaus, so it had to come from deep. The well remained in use until 1970, when the village was connected to the water supply.

Interesting church, now located on the outskirts of the village. The Saint-Blaise d'Espédaillac church was destroyed (like the whole village) by the Huguenots between 1575 and 1584. The village was rebuilt from 1610; the church was rebuilt from 1616 under the direction of Brother Balthazar Fraissac, Commander of Durbans and Soulomès.
