History
of the locality
Wonderfully located in the heart of the Cathar country, a full of history and tales Languedoc region, the
Calvayrac domain extends on 17 acres of a preserved nature which undulates between moors and oak woods.

|
The well known past of the place brings you back to the XIIIth century and the famous episode of the «People of Albi's Crusade». At this time, lands of Calvayrac belonged to the very near Saint Denis de Sanche priory, a property of the Dominican friars of the Montroyal Chapter.
|
|
Its ideal situation on the top of the Malepère hills, its history as well as the wild case it is nestling in have always turned Calvayrac into a place of character, a disgression far from the bustle of our world.

Cathars one
side,
the dominican Inquisition the other side,
within the confines of this highland of Malepeyre,
the same millenary actors still seem to burn
with their ancestral and inextinguishable passions.
