Sainte-Enimie, Medieval village in Lozère, France.

Sainte-Enimie sits at 480 meters elevation along the Tarn River, surrounded by limestone cliffs and deep gorges in southern France.

The village originated in the 7th century when Princess Énimie established a convent after local waters reportedly cured her skin condition.

The village maintains its medieval character with narrow streets, stone buildings, and a Romanesque church dating from the 14th century.

The village serves as a base for outdoor activities including kayaking on the Tarn River, hiking through the gorges, and rock climbing.

The village contains the remains of a 10th-century Benedictine monastery that became a major pilgrimage destination in medieval times.
