About Rocamadour

Rocamadour's stone houses, chapels, and sanctuary appear to grow directly out of a sheer limestone cliff face above the Alzou canyon, making it one of the most striking sights in southwest France. It has drawn Christian pilgrims for nearly a thousand years, and today's visitors can walk the same stepped pilgrim path up to the clifftop chapels, or simply admire the view from below.
