Aumont-Aubrac

Highlight • Settlement

Aumont-Aubrac has many stories relating to the Beast of Gévaudan. This ferocious beast is at the origin of a series of attacks against humans that occurred between 1764 and 1767 in Gévaudan in Lozère. The legend remains intact. Still, a beautiful weather vane representing the animal is located in the city center.

If you are a lover of good food, then I recommend that you reserve a table at chef Cyril Attrazic's Michelin-starred gourmet restaurant. You will have the choice between a starred restaurant, but in the same establishment, the chef also runs a brasserie and a bistro. There is something for all budgets. It's quite unexpected to find such gastronomic diversity in such a small village.

Aumont-Aubrac is also one of the key places in Lozère to taste this extraordinary dish that is aligot (mashed potatoes mixed with fresh tomme cheese).

Saint Stephen's Church, Aumont-Aubrac

Highlight • Religious Site

The village of Aumont-Aubrac is home to the Saint-Etienne church with a mix of Romanesque and Baroque styles. Mentioned as early as 1106, it is today an essential stopover for shell hikers.

Remodeled during the 19th century, the church retains a trace of each period of its construction. The apse is the oldest part while the nave seems to predate the 14th century. It has a square bell tower ending in a spire, raised in 1809 with stones from the cemetery.
Its pointed arched south portal is one of the most remarkable in the region. Its granite rubble facade is typical of local architecture.

If the architecture remains sober and typical of the Romanesque style, the decoration lets its contemporaneity shine through.
The magnificent stained glass windows dated 1967 are the work of a contemporary artist named Ménard.
In its nave, at the entrance to the south chapel, is a superb painting representing the Virgin carrying the Child and the young John the Baptist.
