The Domaine de Montgiraud features several historic details: its main building was erected at the end of the 17th century, and one part of the timber structure bears the date 1697. The estate also includes a dovecote dating from the late 18th century. The Domaine de Montgiraud was built in the 18th century and, in addition to the residential building, has an elegant tower.
The Église Saint-Martin de Vareilles is a Romanesque church dating from the 11th century. Its bell tower has two levels with open arcades; cornices mark its various stages. The choir contains a series of carved capitals.
The village itself also preserves traces of history. Vareilles retains houses made of ochre-coloured limestone, which shape the character of the village. The gallery house on the village square probably dates from the 15th century and has stone columns that appear to have been reused from the church.
