In the heart of the Larzac plateau, Sainte-Eulalie-de-Cernon is a medieval jewel in Aveyron. This fortified village, with the appearance of an oasis in the middle of the causses, is especially known for its Templar commandery, one of the best preserved in France.
A journey through time
As you stroll through the alleys of Sainte-Eulalie-de-Cernon, you will feel like you are going back in time. The church, the fountain, the stone houses... Everything exudes authenticity. The Templar commandery, with its thick walls and austere buildings, bears witness to the importance of this religious order in the region.
The Larzac Commandery, a pearl of heritage
The Templar and Hospitaller Commandery of Sainte-Eulalie-de-Cernon is a must-see. Founded in the 12th century, it served as an administrative and religious center for the Templars of Larzac. Today, it houses a museum that traces the history of the order and the commandery.
An exceptional natural setting
Sainte-Eulalie-de-Cernon is also a gateway to the Grands Causses Regional Natural Park. You can enjoy many outdoor activities there: hiking, mountain biking, caving... The landscapes are breathtaking, with limestone plateaus, deep gorges and beech forests.
