  • This is a one of a kind village: Located beneath a rock, this village has a very unique appearance and been admired by many visitors. This village looks like it was from a fairytale, maybe it is the town of the Beauty and the Beast. No doubt, the majestic appearance and location make Rocamadour to one of the most beautiful villages of France. This village has a turbulent history, it’s been important for Roman Catholic Christian pilgrims, because of the church that is said to be built on the ground of a chapel established by Zaccheaus, who came all the way from the Holy Land to this place. In the medieval times, a corps was discovered by the chapel that was then believed to be Zaccheaus / Saint Amadour. The original chapel was destroyed during the reformation, the church looted during the French revolution and Rocamadour became relatively unimportant. However, in the 19th century, today’s church was built in here and Rocamadour again attracted numerous pilgrims. While the religious pilgrimage is declining in today’s times, Rocamadour became a magnet for tourists. Numerous visitors come to Rocamadour as it is said to be one of the most beautiful French villages. Rocamadour attracts tourists due to its unique location, its look and the medieval vibes. The village remains up to this day pristine, the medieval vibes are omnipresent, making it a true joy to explore Rocamadour. Besides, the department of Lot does offer many more beautiful places to be explored, Rocamadour being a perfect base for traveling to the nearby attractions.

    Hello Djemo, I love your videos. They are always interesting and beautiful.
    My favorite French village is the small Basque town of Sare. There are many nearby villages like Ainhoa, Espellette, and Ascaín that are also beautiful.

      Hi. That's right. Rocamadour is not that green within the village. It's mostly rocks and stone houses. The village is incredibly beautiful due to its location and appearance, but it's quickly explored as it's just one alley basically, but then, there is also the church that adds up a lot.
