Culture
The Écluse de La Roche dates from the end of 1834 or the beginning of 1835.
The Moulin à sang is a stone cylindrical tower approximately ten metres high, with a reservoir above it. Water from the River Isle was fed under pressure into a reservoir there and subsequently distributed for growing maize, wheat and, above all, tobacco, and later for livestock farming. The reservoir was supplied using animal power, probably by a donkey.

Within the municipality of Marsac-sur-l'Isle, the Voie Verte runs for two kilometres along the River Isle. At the Pont de Gravelle, it connects with an 86-kilometre Véloroute linking Périgord and Gironde.
The Véloroute–Voie Verte des berges de l’Isle is a 15-kilometre greenway open to pedestrians, cyclists, inline skaters and wheelchair users.
Nature
The Fontaine intermittente has been a curiosity since antiquity because of its irregularly intermittent water flow.
The ÃŽlot de La Roche lies between the lock channel and the La Roche weir and attracts walkers and picnickers in fine weather.
