Saint Paul de Reilhac is one of the few churches entirely Romanesque (12th century). It is of Templar origin and has a rectangular plan.
It has a nave of three bays, followed by a choir under a dome with pendentives and a semicircular apse.
The baptismal font, composed of 7 ribbed lobes, is carved from a single block of granite (12th century)
The beauty of this edifice takes on its full meaning when the mica of its carefully cut granite stones shines in the setting sun.
Free access all year round.
