8Conques (Occitanie)

Nestled in the rolling hills of the Aveyron region, Conques is a medieval village that has remained largely untouched by time. Its narrow, winding streets, half-timbered houses, and stone bridges make it one of the most enchanting villages in France. Conques is also an important stop on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, and its Romanesque Sainte-Foy Abbey is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The village’s peaceful atmosphere and stunning architecture make it a perfect retreat for history lovers.
