Benefits of Montaigu-de-Quercy
This humble market town still retains a traditional central square, filled with the prettiest blue-shuttered houses, half-timbered buildings, honey-colored stone, and balconies in bloom. Old-fashioned in the best way, sleepy Montaigu comes to life on Saturdays with its traditional food market, and its popular freshwater lakes and beach is another hive of activity in summer.
The particularity of the area of Montaigu-de-Quercy is the alignment of limestone plateaus between wide valleys, orientated from north-east to south-west. Their altitude reaches 250m. At the north and north-west of the village, the hillsides of the Pays de Serre’s and of the Quercy Blanc are constituted of white limestone.
