A unique church in France
The church is a roman edifice from the XII° century. Its architecture is quite original because the churchtower is isolated and perpendicular to the gable of the church. It is called a "bell tower", as we can see many in Tuscany. On the building, some marks of restoration are visible.

A wild and preserved environment
It is a rather infertile place where the natural prairies and the pacages are numerous, as well as the forests, which are full of game. There is a river, The Vianon, appreciated by the fishermen. We also find in Palisse many ponds preserved by the municipality.

Some nice villages around Palisse
In these villages, we find wonderful houses and old barns. In Palisse-Haute, some Gallo-Roman ruins were found. Aumont and Champier are also nice and peaceful villages. In the Croix du Pouget and in Rio Clavel, some prehistoric tumulus were excavated.
