In one of the best-preserved parts of the Margeride massif, the Three Sisters pass is said to have been named after the story of three sisters born in the parish of La Panouse, all three of whom were hired as servants in the local barracks. According to the dictionary of the rural world, these barracks refer to old inns located at the start of steep roads. This allowed the wagoners to reinforce their teams before setting off.

The existence of this fortified castle is mentioned as early as the 12th century. It is believed to have been built on an even older fortress. In 1764, the Château de Saint-Alban was requisitioned as headquarters to organize raids aimed at eliminating the Beast of Gévaudan.

Unexpected and yet very present! In the middle of this wild part of the Margeride massif you will find this superb washing and repair station for your bike: compressor, all valves and tools are available free of charge, while the washing device requires a contribution (normal). Also take the opportunity to fill your water bottles thanks to the small tap on the left.

In the heart of Margeride, this small village seems austere, but for those who know how to observe, this austerity hides great beauty. Margeride is a harsh country and this is reflected in its very architecture.
