History

After the war, a Belgian family settled in Saujac and donated the Croix des Belges in memory of the families who had helped them.

The Croix des Belges commemorates Belgian families who had to leave their homeland in May 1940 during the German occupation and were taken in at a farm in Toulonjac.

The village's attractions also include Saujac's old washhouses.
