The dolmens, which in Breton means "stone table", would have served as collective burials for up to a hundred people.

Discover again the Great Sites in Occitania!

Occitania is packed with outstanding sites such as picturesque villages, natural amphitheatres and Cathar castles… To make them known and bolster their tourist attractiveness, the regional council has included 39 sites into the Occitania Great Sites plan among which is Millau-Roquefort. This recognition provides the municipality of Roquefort with another opportunity to enhance heritage and boost the tourist reputation of the area while reconciling these with economic development of the cheese manufacturing industry.

"Roquefort Demain" (Tomorrow Roquefort) is the name given to a large-scale project that should be indeed launched in the course of 2019: a redevelopment programme and an area dedicated to agropastoralism and to the Roquefort cheese production…

Meanwhile, we offer you to discover the TV commercial of the Occitania Great Sites promotional campaign. So if you too wish to experience the time of your life in Occitania, see you there! The Millau Roquefort Great Site invites you to embark upon a meaningful journey rich in shared experiences.
