St Antonin Noble Val / Espinas area

A little history...
St-Antonin-Noble-Val was named after "Saint-Antonin the evangelist" and also the town's magnificent riverside location - its "Nobilis Vallis" (noble valley). Because the town straddles the River Aveyron, many deadly battles have been fought here over the years.

Architecture
"La Maison des Consuls" in St-Antonin-Noble-Val is the oldest civic building in France; medieval houses line the streets of the town; many original architectural features can be seen in the "place de la Halle".

Things to see & do
Explore the "Roc d'Anglars" and the Aveyron gorges; walk along the Aveyron & Bonnette rivers; visit the "Maison de l'Amour" & "Grotte du Bosc".

A short walk away is the small village of Espinas, which has a beautiful church, a private art gallery, a bar and approximately 50 residents who are all very friendly and welcoming!
