On the terraces of Carladez, Mur-de-Barrez is a town with a remarkable architectural heritage. The Monaco tower, the former main gateway when the city was fortified, was the property of the princes of Monaco. In addition to the tower, the Renaissance house which houses the town hall, the two churches, the castle of Venzac and the war memorial are all protected as historical monuments.

Small path along the Siniq river, just outside Brommat. We pass by the very pretty Moulin de Burée.

One of the biggest dam in Europe which contains more than 1000 hectares of mountain water. A balcony path borders the lake, just after the bridge. A single site!
