SAINT MARTIAL'S CHURCH
Church located at the bottom of a valley, established since the century, surprising by its imposing mass of blond stones.
The abbey church of Saint-Martial de Paunat dates back over a thousand years to the 6th century. Founded at the time by Saint Cybard, it was plundered and destroyed many times over the years. As a result, after many alterations, the building visible today dates back to the 12th century. Its distinctive feature is its 25-metre-high bell tower-porch, overlooking the medieval village of Paunat. A true symbol of the Périgord Noir region, this small village comes alive in summer with a gourmet market featuring a wealth of local produce.
