Entraygues is
situated at the
meeting point
of the Lot and
The Truyère rivers,
" between waters "
as his name
indicates it
occitan there. |

|
| Two
bridges allow to cross both rivers to which
one owes the etymology of the city: Truyere's
bridge ( the end of XIII °) and the bridge
Notre Dame du Lot. |

This town was founded in the
middle of the 13th century at the same time
as the castle built by Henri II, count of, Rodez,
between 1278 and 1290. Entraygues was strengthened
in 1357 during the war of 100 years. But it
remains only two towers out of 213 towers initially.
Entraygues is one of the favourite place of
fishers in Aveyron. |
