Église de Pierrefiche d'Olt
The church of Pierrefiche is dedicated to Saint Pierre and dates from the 12th century. It is listed as a Historical Monument.
The church is located on the edge of the plateau, on the site of what was probably the former priory. It was given to the Cistercian abbey of Bonneval (above Espalion) in 1177 by Bishop Hugues de Rodez. The abbots of Bonneval were, until the Revolution, the prioresses and lords of Pierrefiche
Around 1872, part of the church was modified in the neo-Romanesque style, and its bell tower was transformed. A recent restoration has highlighted the Romanesque choir.
