• The Church

Dedicated to Saint-Étienne — French for Saint Stephen — this church takes elements from both Roman and Gothic architectures. Built during the 11th and 12th centuries, it is a Monument Historique since 1993. One of its most characteristic features is its south-west capital, supporting a Sagittarius and two faces, one of which — the right one on the picture below — features an enormous tongue.

• The Castle

Saint-Étienne's castle was built during the 14th century, then heavily modified from the 17th century onwards.

• Rocher d'Urlande (Rock of Urlande)

Witness of the volcanic history of the department, the Rocher d'Urlande is now a renowned rock-climbing site.
