By an Autumnal morning, an overview on the village of Conques from the vantage point known as "Bancarel" (Aveyron - France).
By an Autumnal morning, an overview on the village of Conques from the vantage point known as "Bancarel" (Aveyron - France). Built on a hillside overhanging the Dourdou river, that medieval village and its abbey-church are a stopover for pilgrims on the age old way to the shrine of Saint James, at Compostella (Spain). Par un matin d'Automne, vue d'ensemble du village de Conques depuis le point de vue de "Bancarel" (Aveyron- France). Bâti au flanc d'une colline surplombant la rivière Dourdou, ce village médiéval et son abbatiale sont une halte pour les pèlerins effectuant le chemin menant à Saint-Jacques de Compostelle, en Espagne.
