Conques is a place rich in architecture, sculpture, medieval goldsmithery and contemporary art in Aveyron
The village of Conques, classified as one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France and one of the Great Sites of Occitania, nestles in a preserved natural setting. It is a reference in Romanesque architecture (abbey church and tympanum of the Last Judgement), medieval goldsmith’s art (Treasure of Saint Foy) and contemporary art (stained glass windows by Pierre Soulages).
Conques, with its worldwide spiritual and artistic influence, is also a major stage on the Way of St. James. The abbey church and the pilgrims’ bridge are included on the UNESCO World Heritage List as part of the French Way of Compostela. Traduction automatique par DeepL via DATAtourisme
