Marvejols, Medieval commune in Lozère, France

The commune of Marvejols rests at an elevation of 640 meters in the Massif Central, with the Colagne River flowing through its center.

Following destruction during religious conflicts, Marvejols underwent complete reconstruction in 1601 under the direction of King Henry IV of France.

The Notre Dame de la Carce church displays two bronze sculptures depicting the Beast of Gevaudan and King Henry IV of France.

The Wolf Park of Gevaudan near Marvejols houses more than 100 wolves in natural habitats and welcomes visitors throughout the year.

Each July, the association Espoir Oc transforms Marvejols into a medieval setting with traditional banquets and Occitan language celebrations.
