Of pure Auvergne Romanesque style from the 12th century, it has a formerly fortified bell tower, 30 capitals with various themes: pagan, symbolic or Christian. Located in the heart of Riom-ès-Montagnes, it can be visited freely every day, with a closing time between 12 and 2 pm.
The Barajol Viaduct, also known as the "Dry Moon Viaduct", is a gigantic and audacious structure that crosses the Petite Rhue valley. A genius of the technicians, it is a jewel of railway architecture and one of the attractions of the Gentiane Express tourist train. With a length of 317 meters and a height of 57 meters, resting on twelve arches, it is registered in the inventory of the Historic Monuments.
The castle was built between 1470 and 1510 and is very characteristic of the architecture of the Haute-Auvergne. It still has all the attributes of a fortified house: tower, sentry walk and watchtowers. Inhabited by the same family since the 15th century, you will be welcomed in a living house where you can visit its rooms and its furniture. "One of the most beautiful castles of Cantal".
In a typical Auvergne barn dating from the 17th century, discover the world of the Salers cow and its products. Touch screens and short films (going up to the mountain pastures and sale of a bull from the racial authorities) punctuate the 1h30 visit, which ends with a tasting of local products: cold cuts made from Salers beef, two cheeses made from 100% Salers cow's milk, sweet cookies and local alcohol. The products offered for tasting are available in our store. During the summer, share a moment with your family with our treasure hunts every Wednesday. Temporary exhibitions of artists throughout the year

The Pays Gentiane is a territory rich in PDO cheeses, in fact we count the presence of 4 PDO cheeses out of the 5 referenced in the Auvergne region: Cantal, Salers, Saint-Nectaire and Bleu, of which Riom-ès-Montagnes is the capital.
The yellow gentian (Gentiana Lutea) is the emblematic flower of the Gentian Country, which bears its name. Perfectly recognizable with its flowers in the shape of yellow pompons, it populates the summer pasture plateaus of the Cantal. Its most widespread use concerns the manufacture of aperitifs. One uses then the roots of gentian, still called rhizome for the development of these alcohols.
The Salers cow with its beautiful mahogany coat and its horns in the shape of a lyre is one of the most present cows on the Cantal Mountains. Today it is mainly used in the suckling system, it is a mixed breed. It produces good milk but also very good meat. The Salers meat benefits from the Red Label since 2004, a guarantee of quality.
