Loubressac is a village of Lot located in the heart of the Dordogne valley and classified among The most beautiful villages in France.

Understand

Built on a rocky bow overlooking the Dordogne valley, opposite Castelnau-Bretenoux castle, Loubressac enjoys an exceptional panorama and magnificent buildings from the Middle Ages.

Its history begins a little below during the Gallo-Roman period. Then in the XIII^e century, for security and surveillance reasons, a new center of population was established on the highest cliff around a castle, thus forming a castle town.

Entering the village through the fortified gate, one can observe the houses installed on the rampart line.
