Assier is linked to the remarkable destiny of one of his children: Galiot de Genouillac born in 1466. He had a brilliant military career with Charles VIII, Louis XII and François I, who appointed him Grand Ecuyer of France. An artillery specialist, Galiot improved the gun system and enabled the French to win the Battle of Marignan in 1515. He brought the winds of the Italian Renaissance to the Quercy region, having his castle built in 1526, of which only one of the four wings remains. Other treasures of the commune, a dovecote, two old windmills, dolmens, menhirs and tumulus as well as the Circus cave.
