Montcabrier: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes
The historic buildings in Montcabrier include the Église Saint-Louis. Its main construction phases date from the 13th, 14th and 18th centuries. It was built on the site of a Romanesque chapel on the initiative of Philippe IV to celebrate the canonisation of Saint-Louis. As a Monument historique, the church is protected: the west façade was listed on 26 October 1925, and the entire church was listed on 2 June 2003.
