The Château de Larroque-Toirac clings to a cliffside above the Lot valley, between Figeac and Cajarc. Built from the 13th century and extended through the 15th, it retains its medieval defensive structure along with a seigneurial residence decorated with 16th-century fireplaces and frescoes. Behind the walls, caves carved into the rock show traces of occupation since the Neolithic period and were later used as cellars or sheepfolds.
