St Emilion
The town derives its name from the hermit Emilion who lived there in the 8th century. Emilion carved out a cave for himself in the limestone and a monastery followed. The 12th Century belfry rises above a rocky spur encrusted with catacombs, a hermitage, a chapel and an underground church.
