The Saint-Sylvestre Church depends on the Saint-Jacques-en-Vallée-du-Lot community, attached to the diocese of Agen. The current village church was built between 1863 and 1865. It houses, among other things, a beautiful 14th-century polychrome wooden statue representing Saint Peter.

The medieval alleys of Penne-d'Agenais, listed among the Most Beautiful Villages of France, form a true paved labyrinth that climbs the hillside for nearly 200 meters in altitude to overlook the superb Lot valley. This fortified town, often compared to a small Tuscan village due to its ochre-colored facades, warm stones, and gentle way of life, offers a real dive into medieval history.

Very nice circuit with few people on the roads. The last climb on the road parallel to the departmental road is very difficult with a gradient that I estimated at 15% but is visibly a bit steeper (18%?).

Saint-Maurin is located in the hollow of a green valley where the Escorneboeuf flows. To see: its half-timbered houses, its market hall, the remains of the Benedictine abbey from the 11th and 12th centuries and its abbey castle built in 1500.

The construction of Saint-Maurin Abbey dates from the end of the 11th century, following its affiliation with Moissac Abbey and the Benedictine order. This large monastic ensemble spread out to numerous surrounding churches and priories, as many possessions which showed its influence and importance within a radius of 20 kilometers. Ruined then restored several times during the Hundred Years' War and during the Wars of Religion, it was during the Revolution that the buildings were sold in batches. Today, you can still admire the choir of the old abbey church as well as two chapels, the cloister, the convent buildings, the abbey castle and its gardens.
