Bretenoux is a fortified town in the Haut-Quercy region, recognizable by its checkerboard layout and large central square lined with arcades. Located at the confluence of the Cère and Dordogne rivers, it has been a busy trading center since the Middle Ages. Today, its lively streets and well-preserved heritage make it a pleasant stopover between Rocamadour and the valley's castles.

The abbey church of the former Benedictine monastery in Beaulieu dates back to the 12th century. Romanesque at its finest. The south portal is particularly impressive, with its detailed tympanum depicting Christ with his disciples. The adjoining bell tower dates from the 14th century. Only the remains of the monastery walls and the chapter house remain.
