In a wild, verdant setting just below the village of Peyrusse-le-Roc lies a medieval site of great beauty. Follow the pleasant sloping path departing from the village centre to discover the various buildings that make up this remarkable group. The photogenic towers of the lower castle, perched on the Roc del Thaluc, the ruins of the old Church of Our Lady of Laval, the Faubourg bridge across the Audierne, the King's Tomb, a 14th-century mausoleum, the remains of the English Hospital, the belfry and the Barbican gate all provide a reminder of the area's medieval past, and can be admired on a walk. There is also an exhibition of wheelbarrows and medieval machines along the way.
