The name of the highlight and the accompanying photo don't seem to fit together, as the image shows "Monument aux Mortes," like those erected in many places to commemorate the victims of war. However, I can't find the odometer to Compostela, as suggested in the name, in the photo.

The beautiful, large church, restored in the early 1990s, was built in the mid-16th century. It once served as a Protestant temple until it regained its Catholic vocation in the first half of the 17th century.

Classed among the Most Beautiful Villages in France, Navarrenx reveals remarkable heritage. This medieval fortified town has the distinction of being one of the first fortified towns in France. It has an austere and military side and features classical-style buildings.
