The old village of Sauliac-sur-Célé. Superb troglodyte site above the river.

Le Vieux Sauliac was established at the foot of the cliff overlooking the Célé. Its houses were staged all along the way leading to the five main fords which make it possible to cross in various places the Célé to join the Lot valley.
In the 19th century, the village migrated to the foothills overlooking the new Figeac-Cabrerets road. The Célé flows below. A natural bathing replaced the site where farmers and villagers came to wash clothes, water the animals and draw drinking water.
