Aveyron
Discover Aveyron, it's to walk on the pilgrim way to Santiago de
Compostella, to discover Aubrac and Conques, a masterpiece of Romanesque
art, or listen to a concert of religious music at Sylvanès.
Discovering Aveyron, it's to sample aligot in a buron, it's to
visit Larzac and the Templar region, it's to rediscover the Gallo-Roman
era at Graufesenque just outside Millau ; it's to gaze in amazement
on the route of the Lords of Rouergue, in the Lot valley, at the
foot of Rodez cathedral or in the Gorges du Tarn. Visit the largest
collection of Megalithic stones in France or enter a new dimension,
the world of insects at Micropolis at Saint-Léons, land of
Jean Henri Fabre or again explore the circuit of bastide towns around
Villefranche-de-Rouergue. Discover Aveyron, its first and foremost
to encounter those who cultivate such a warm tradition of hospitality.
Culture and traditions…
Aveyron of the routes to Santiago de Compostella, of the mountains
and the Causse, the Rougiers or the Ségalas, Aveyron of rivers
and valleys, each with its own character, its own accents and its
own recipes.
Perhaps it's while dining, a glass of Marcillac in hand, the you'll
really come to understand what makes the Aveyronnais tick.
It is not enough to simply drive through the region in order to
have visited it. Aveyron is not a museum, but a living culture,
there to be discovered.
The legendary Laguiole knife and Roquefort are the département's
ambassadors throughout the world, epitomising the traditional aveyronnais
savoir-faire handed down through generations…
