RICH HISTORY
Occitanie, a region in southern France, is steeped in rich history, with numerous villages that showcase its cultural heritage. Several of these villages have been recognized as UNESCO World Heritage sites, celebrating unique architecture and historical significance.
Montcuq is a vibrant village with one of the favourite local markets in the area on Sunday mornings. Climb to the top of the village tour for a fantastic view, wander the beautiful cobbled streets, drink coffee at one of the bustling cafés, or join locals for the tradition of Sunday lunch in the centre of town following the weekly market.
The local tourist office in Montcuq is a great stop for information on all local events and places to visit around Montcuq. The office is situated in the centre of the town opposite the Credit Agricole bank.
PICTURESQUE MARKETS
The markets of southern France are a wonderful experience. Each town's market offers lots of local in season produce, artisanal goods, and handmade crafts. Markets not only provide a feast for the senses but are also about community, as everyone comes together here once a week to catch up. There are two main local markets to La Roque, Montaigu de Quercy every Saturday morning and Montcuq every Sunday morning. It's a big tradition locally to eat lunch out in Montcuq after the market, so make sure to book as it gets really busy particularly in the summer.
