Our church of Saint Jacques le Majeur in Salviac

Our church was built in the early 14th century by the De Jean family.
It is characterized by its size and capacity (1000 people standing), its blend of Gothic and Romanesque influences, and its imposing slate roof.
A secondary stopover on the route de Saint Jacques de Compostelle (Rocamadour - Moissac), it was once a pilgrimage site dedicated to Saint Eutrope.
Classified as a historic monument, along with some of its furnishings and several 14th, 15th and 16th century stained glass windows, the church has undergone major renovation work over the past 15 years.
