The parish church, at the bottom of the village, is called Notre-Dame du Gourg. From the street paved with Tarn pebbles, we enter it through a Roman gate with two voussoirs. The splendour of the nave and round vaulted choir, of the 5 chapels, 4 of which are ancient, of the 7-part apse adorned with arches, lighted up by a round window, strikes and delights the visitor, just as the beautiful statues harmoniously arranged in the edifice. The loveliest one is a Saint Anne made of painted and golden stone, from the 15th century, holding on her left lap the Virgin holding Jesus.
