Office de Tourisme Ouest Aveyron – Bureau de Najac

Medieval village located west of Aveyron, near Lot, Tarn-et-Garonne and Tarn, in the heart of the Gorges de l'Aveyron. 

The medieval fortress, perched at the top of its spur hugged by the river, was built to defend the Rouergue. 

The castral village developed on the hill in the XNUMXth century. 

From the 13th century onwards, the town expanded eastward, with its suburbs transforming it into a bastide. Le Bourguet and Le Barriou were built along the main street which winds along the rocky ridge, and lead to the Place du Barry and its arcades.

The Saint Jean church, built in the XNUMXth century and holding the title of first Gothic church in Rouergue, extends the village to the west.
