Sénergues combines historic buildings with paths through a green landscape. The donjon of the Château de Sénergues is a square tower dating from the 14th century and is open to visitors.
Culture
The GR 65 pilgrimage route runs through Sénergues along the Via Podiensis towards Conques. Montarnal is a small village in a bend of the Lot River, whose chapel contains wrought-iron grilles dating from the 12th century. The Saint-Pierre Chapel in Pomiès has a pre-Romanesque vault with a round-arched triumphal arch set back from the walls. The Saint-Sulpice Chapel features a pre-Romanesque bell gable, a bell dated 1548, and a rare nave with a flat ceiling.
The present-day Saint-Martin Church in Sénergues was largely rebuilt and extended in the 16th century. Its stained-glass windows were installed in 1965 and made from coloured glass slabs worked with a martelin. The church also has stained-glass windows by Father Ephrem Socard, a Benedictine monk and glass painter from En-Calcat Abbey in the Tarn. Reused elements from an earlier building have also been preserved, including corbels, a tabernacle, and a granite baptismal font.
Nature

The walk to the cascades du Tayrac begins at the Place de l’église Saint-Martin in Sénergues and leads to the waterfalls after crossing the stream.
