Culture
The Conservatoire d'outils anciens is divided into five areas dedicated to five themes from everyday life in the past. It can be visited by groups of at least eight people by prior appointment.
The surviving residential building of the Château de Lentour dates from the reconstruction following the Hundred Years' War and can be dated to the second half of the 15th century or the beginning of the 16th century. The Château de Lentour has fortifications flanked on the east by two round towers with loopholes. The château is privately owned.
Only the choir remains of the 15th-century Church of Saint-Pierre-ès-Liens. The nave and the two large side chapels were built during the reconstruction from 1855 to 1856. A medieval sarcophagus discovered during construction work has been placed against the wall of the nave.
The hydraulic Moulin de Vergnoulet in Mayrinhac-Lentour is also part of the area's history. It has produced flour since at least the 18th century and is the last mill still operating on the Alzou. Its equipment includes two pairs of millstones driven by water, as well as a third pair that is occasionally powered by an electric motor.
