Laroque-Des-Arcs
Founded in the 12th century, Laroque-des-Arcs, inhabited since Roman times, was established to protect the "arches" that carried water from the valley to the baths of Cahors. The remains of this Roman aqueduct are still visible at Pech de Clary (right bank), along with the ruins of the toll tower, which allowed local lords to collect fees from travelers using the river.
Monument
The Castle of the English
Looking closely at the cliffs, you can see the "Castle of the English," an 11th-century fortress carved into the limestone rock to protect villagers in case of attack. A little further up, perched on the heights, you will spot the Chapel of St. Roch.
Monument

You won’t be able to miss the magnificent Château de Mercuès. We recommend the Terre Blanc Circuit, a 5.7 km loop that will take you along the ridges overlooking the village and Château de Mercuès. Take the opportunity to join a tasting workshop with a sommelier inside the castle grounds.
