Diver Statue and Musée du Scaphandre, Espalion

Highlight • Monument

Located on the edge of the river, this village offers a rather unexpected discovery. The village is located more than 200 kilometers from the nearest coast, but it is here that the famous Rouquayrol & Denayrouze regulator was designed, at the origin of the regulator which now equips all divers in the world.

The diving suit museum is located in the Saint Jean-Baptiste church. With its red stone façade in the neo-Gothic style, a visit to this atypical museum is a must. A statue of a diver who sometimes has his feet in the water, depending on the flooding of the river, is nearby.
