Marcilhac-sur-Célé

Highlight • Other

Marcilhac-sur-Célé is on the way to Santiago de Compostela (variant 651 of the GR65).

Organized around its abbey whose Romanesque church has preserved an austere beauty, this village exudes tranquility and bathes in the freshness of the banks of the Célé.

It seems very tiny next to these large limestone cliffs!

Saint-Pierre de Marcilhac Abbey was built at the beginning of the 9th century by Benedictines from Moissac, fleeing the Normans. Pépin, king of Aquitaine, took it under his protection in 845 or 848. In the 10th century the abbey was independent.

In the 12th century, it was very powerful and had more than a hundred priories, including the church of Rocamadour donated in 1030 by Déodat or Dieudonné, bishop of Cahors.
After many destructions, the abbey has lost its luster, to be today only the shadow of itself. Much of the building is no more than ruins, but by visiting it you will be able to realize its past grandeur. The church adjoining the abbey is on the other hand well renovated.
