Many centuries ago, our ancestors discovered the possibility of harnessing the power of the elements - which on the one hand could be helpful and useful, but on the other hand could also be a threat as untamed forces of nature - for various purposes and thus be able to do without human or animal muscle power. Mills like these are a good example of the human engineering skills of earlier generations: the heavy millstones used to grind grain into corn or press oil, for example, could be powered by the wind or - as here - water.

Beautiful asphalt road, in the Rance valley, between Saint-Étienne-de-Maurs and Roannes-Saint-Mary. Numerous signs, intended for cyclists, announcing the difference in altitude have been installed on the shoulders. In the fall, watch out for chestnuts on the road!

The mill of Entraygues is a watermill dating from the end of the 16th century. Intended to produce walnut oil and flour, it played a key role for the local economy. In 1970, the mill stopped working, although you can organize a visit to discover all the secrets of this architectural nugget.

Saint-Césaire Abbey is located in the heart of Maurs, a commune in Cantal, France. Dating from the 10th century, this building was repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt. The oldest parts of the current building date from the 15th and 16th centuries. You can find there the reliquary bust of Saint Césaire, the patron saint of this church.

Saint-Santin and Saint-Santin-de-Maurs are on either side of the border between Cantal and Aveyron. Separated by the Route du Théron, the two churches face each other, offering a double opportunity to admire these architectural and historical gems.
