The town is overlooked by a hill on which stands the medieval city. There are five ruined castles along its ridge - the 'Château des Eveques (‘baronial chateau'), the 'Chateau d'Harcourt', the 'donjon de gouzon' and the chateau de Montleon.

There are many narrow streets opening onto a square with eating facilities. The one shown above had waiters and waitresses in period costume adding to the flavour of the place.
The church of St Pierre, also on the site, merits a separate blog.... See tomorrow's posting!
