La Loubière -Saint-Pierre-aux-Liens de Cayssac
Cayssac is a small hamlet that by now is part of La Loubière.
When Ermengarde, countess of Rodez, in 1170 joined the Cistercian Order at the monastery of Nonenque, she donated her "villa" and its land in the Lioujas area to the monastery. Until the Revolution, the Church of Caysssac was linked to that of the monastic "grange" of Lioujas. About 300ha agricultural area belonged to that "grange".
The first church was a single-nave building, erected in the late 12th and early 13th century. This church got altered and enlarged many times. The transept was added in the 15th and the choir in a kind of Renaissance style in the 16th century.
During the Wars of Religion (1562-1698), the church of Cayssac got fortified, as the Huguenot war captains marauded the area around Rodez. Thus the bell tower got partly walled on the north side to protect itself, while the vaults served as refuges for villagers.
Unfortunately the church was locked.
