Office de Tourisme Ouest Aveyron - Bureau de Najac

Medieval village located in the west of the Aveyron, near the Lot, the Tarn-et-Garonne and the Tarn, in the heart of the Aveyron Gorges.

The medieval fortress, perched at the top of its spur embraced by the river, was built to defend the Rouergue.

The castle town developed on the hill in the 11th century.

From the 13th century, the city expanded eastward, with its suburbs making it a bastide. Le Bourguet and le Barriou are built along the main street which winds along the rocky ridge, and join the place du Barry and its covered market.

The church of Saint Jean, built in the 13th century and holding the title of the first Gothic church in Rouergue, extends the village to the west.
