Saint-Martin-le-Redon

In terms of built heritage, a stage in Saint-Martin-le-Redon is the opportunity to visit its Romanesque church, dating back to medieval times, and whose bell tower was reworked and raised later.

To see also, the tower of Mescalprès, erected in the fourteenth, which was surrounded by an enclosure now disappeared. From the top of the tower, knights could watch the valley of the Thèze and the surrounding woods. Inscribed in the supplementary inventory of historical monuments, the building was attached to a dwelling and consisted of five levels (with a dovecot at the top). Archers are always visible, proving the defensive character of this tower which has not "survived" the Hundred Years War.

During walks, there are also numerous gariottes (small shelters vaulted in dry stones) which served to the winegrowers and the shepherds.

Hiking is a pleasant activity in Saint-Martin-le-Redon: a marked trail allows to reach the castle of Bonaguil (count however three good hours of walk!). Information on +33 5 65 21 37 63.

Another marked trail follows the route of the ancient Roman road that led to Duravel.

It is no longer possible to visit the source of St. Martial. On the other hand, for the pleasure of discovering or practicing fishing, the Moulin de Guiral and its ponds for fishing or leisure are worth a visit. Contact at +33 5 65 36 53 26.

The first Wednesday of August, in the evening, is organized a market of the soil with gourmet products and artisans, and a musical spectacle.
