- Discover a charming medieval city in height, in the country of Vaour. This fortress stretches to the very top of the village as if to reach the sky! Its winding alleys will make you look up and give a big wow! The "eagle's nest" or the "citadel of vertigo", as it is nicknamed, sits above the nearby Aveyron gorges. Medievalists will be passionate about the preserved Château de Penne, "in its own juice", where you can invent a thousand crusades and adventures. An interpretation trail will teach you everything there is to know about this unique site in Occitania. The town center of Penne is charming, with its 13th century church and the Chapelle Sainte-Madeleine des Albis.
