Sainte-Enimie, Medieval village in Gorges du Tarn, Lozère, France.

The village extends across limestone cliffs of the Tarn gorges, featuring narrow cobblestone streets and stone houses arranged on multiple levels.

A Merovingian princess named Enimie established a monastery in the 6th century after finding healing properties in the local waters.

The Romanesque chapter house and Notre-Dame-du-Gourg church contain religious sculptures and artifacts from the 14th and 15th centuries.

Canoe rentals offer routes ranging from 8 to 24 kilometers through the Tarn gorges, with multiple departure points in the village.

The natural spring waters of the village contained medicinal properties for skin conditions according to ancient texts.
