Laruscade: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes
Laruscade is home to the Église Saint-Exupère, a church dating from the late 11th or early 12th century, with a single-nave layout and a semicircular apse.
The Église Saint-Exupère was extensively modified in the 16th century. The west façade was rebuilt, and a stair tower and a porch were added; an axial opening was created in the choir.
This axial opening in the choir contains a stained-glass window created by Raymond Mirande, depicting the miracle of Saint Exupère.
Including the preserved parts of the entrance porch and access staircase, the Église Saint-Exupère has been listed as a historic monument by decree dated 10 December 2007.
Those choosing Laruscade as a travel destination may wish to find a holiday apartment.
Culture
Laruscade is also home to Pontaupin, a manor house with a mantelpiece dated 1705. The fine gentilhommière probably dates from the late 17th century.
In addition to a watermill, Pontaupin also had a windmill, which was still in operation at the beginning of the 19th century.
Activities
The pump track in Laruscade consists of a course with bumps and dips and is primarily intended to introduce beginners to wheeled sports.
