Culture

The history of the area includes several traces around the Église Saint-Pierre-de-la-Sépie. The church was built on the site of a temple dedicated to the goddess Andarte. The Église Saint-Pierre de Sépie dates from the 12th century and was the church of an Augustinian priory. Today, it can only be viewed from the outside.

A commemorative plaque in Eygluy-Escoulin recalls the FFI Maquisards who were present there in the summer of 1944. In addition, two coins discovered in Escoulin point to a Gallic presence there.
