Latour-de-France

Listed in the Historical Monuments, the chapel Saint-Martin takes place at the limit of Cassagnes, neighboring city. Built in the 12th century, the Romanesque building was decorated with a pen in the course of the fourteenth century.

While strolling through the old fortified village, you can admire several medieval remains like the castle, the ruins of the old church with its tower of the eleventh century, the oratories, or the Roque d'en Talou, landmark between Latour and Montner.
