A stronghold of the eldest branch of the Cardaillac family, the commune was built on a rocky promontory in 1064 at the request of Hugues baron de Cardaillac. In 1188, it came under attack from Richard the Lionheart, future King of England. During the wars of religion that tore Quercy apart, Cardaillac was given to the Protestants under the Edict of Nantes. This rich history is tattooed in the stones that built the village. When you look at it today, you can go back in time and see a concentration of the medieval atmosphere that is still palpable. Don't miss the Manganel well dug into the rock and the Musée Eclaté.
