Culture and history
The Église Saint-Laurent was rebuilt in the 16th century on older foundations and features grisaille and trompe-l’œil paintings. The village also retains several houses and farmsteads dating from the 17th and early 18th centuries.
Below the village, in the «Barry» hamlet, the site of the former St Jean de Lalanne church is marked by a cross. The Order of St John of Jerusalem once owned around a quarter of the parish’s land, as well as an associated church called St Jean de Lalanne.
Caumont appears in local history through a charter from the reign of Philip I, dating to the period from 1060 to 1108. In this charter, Odon, Vicomte de Lomagne, transferred the allod of Caumont to the Abbey of Moissac, which derived the revenues from it until the 14th century.
