Loubressac ('most beautiful villages of France') is 15km north-east of Gramat, towards the northern border of the Lot department.

Tourist Information

Loubressac is a very pretty village set on a rocky outcrop surrounded by woods and open fields. The highlight of the village is the fantastic views in almost all directions, across the valleys of the Dordogne, the Cere and the Bave rivers, and to various distant chateaux. It is best to visit on a clear day if possible.

The village itself has a nice chateau and a 13th century church, and many lovely medieval buildings made of the local white-honey coloured stone, with fine rooves in old tiles and decorative balconies, facing onto the narrow streets and the central square.

Loubressac is one of those rare villages that are still able to evoke another time and place, and should not be missed if you are in the region - it is a magical little village to explore and enjoy.

In addition to being a 'most beautiful village', Loubressac is also classified as a 'village fleuri' (flower village), for its colourful floral displays.

Nearby

The caves at Padirac (gouffres de Padirac) are not to be missed and the world renowned Rocamadour is only a little further.
