History Legend of the relics of St. Cyprian The village's name comes from the name of Cyprian, bishop of Carthage, whose relics are claimed to have been hidden here during two centuries before reportedly transferred to Moissac in 1122. This information comes from Aymeric de Peyrac in his ''Chronicle'', and in an old lectionary of the abbey of Moissac, quoted by the Gallia Christiana, which says that the relics were transferred to Moissac from a place in the diocese of Cahors called ''Valles'' or ''Les Vaux''. Alain de Solminihac probably did not believe the authenticity of the relics. Before 1790, the parish's name was Saint-Cyprien des Vaux.

Quercy
Quercy (; oc, Carcin , locally ) is a former province of France located in the country's southwest, bounded on the north by Limousin, on the west by Périgord and Agenais, on the south by Gascony and Languedoc, and on the east by Rouergue and Auvergne. Description Quercy comprised the present-day department of Lot, the northern half of the department of Tarn-et-Garonne, and a few communities in the departments of Dordogne, Corrèze, and Aveyron. The traditional capital of Quercy is Cahors, now prefecture (capital) of Lot. The largest town of Quercy is Montauban, prefecture of Tarn-et-Garonne.

Also distinct from the rest of the region is the Quercy Blanc lying between Cahors and the southern ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
