Nazareth is a village in the form of a road settlement dating from the 14th century and lies along the Chemins de St Jacques et Rocamadour pilgrimage routes. Near the church, an information board explains the origin of the village of Nazareth, described as a “croisée”.

History and Townscape

The main construction phase of the Saint-Gilles d'Athènes church dates back to the Middle Ages. Its wall paintings depict Christ in His glory and the Tetramorph. The wall paintings in the choir vault were partially protected as a monument historique by decree of 12 December 1928.

The Chapelle Notre-Dame-de-Nazareth is an ex-voto chapel dating from the 12th century. Nazareth is also home to an 18th-century house with a staircase and a double washbasin on the landing. A low opening in the façade gave every house access to water emerging close to the surface.

In Jugeals-Nazareth, the historic bread oven is part of the local heritage. The Pont gaulois is one of the site's named highlights.

The Kibbuz Machar in Nazareth was established in 1933 as a farm school for young Jewish people and closed in 1935. Groups occasionally come specifically to visit this memorial site.
