Culture
The Church of St-Martial offers free guided tours; outside the season, visits are possible by prior appointment. Located in the village of Lagarde in La Selve, this church features neo-Byzantine frescoes by Nicolaï Greschny.
The Church of Notre-Dame was built in 1835 on the site of the former castle chapel. The exhibition in La Selve presents the liturgical calendar and the sacred vestments with their respective colours in an educational format. Two panels in the exhibition in La Selve explain the history of the site as a former Templar commandery. The Salle d’exposition du Patrimoine Religieux et Templier de La Selve is free to access during the church’s opening hours.
The “Treasure Hunt in La Selve” is a permanent game available all year round. It leads from the old gateway to the church via the “Lo Buisson” square and “La Batuda” street.
The cemetery in La Selve is home to a bronze bust of M. Froment, a musician who died in 1934.
