Saint Martin de Londres

This place was inhabited since prehistory, there are a lot of dolmens and several caves were inhabited. Much later, the village of Saint-Martin-de-Londres was built round a church today disappeared, doubtless in the Carolingian time.

In the medieval village, you will discover one of the rare models of churches with dome in our region. It is in Norman shaped and Byzantine in its median elevation and top.

The Romanic Church

to be seen :
- The magnificent Romanic Church dating from the eleventh century.
- The tower of the belfry, the relics of the former fortifications, dating from the fourteenth century.
Very close to it there is the village of Notre-Dame de Londres and some kilometres away from Saint-Martin-de-Londres there is the Ravin des Arcs (ravine) : a spectacular canyon dug by the water into the rock. It is very narrow and sinuous, it is an exceptional beauty spot with bridges and natural arcs of twenty metres high.
