Langogne

Langogne is a commune in southern France located in Lozère at an elevation of approximately 886 meters (2,900 feet). Its town center preserves a circular medieval street pattern that organizes the compact core of this rural settlement.

Langogne developed as a settlement in a mountainous region where local trade routes held historical importance. Over time, the community grew and retained its role as a regional administrative center.

The Filature des Calquières textile factory stands as a primary industrial heritage site, offering educational visits about manufacturing traditions in the region.

The town is best explored on foot since the medieval street layout is compact and pedestrian-friendly. The best time to visit is spring or fall when the mountain climate offers pleasant temperatures.

The Filature des Calquières, a historic textile factory at the edge of town, stands as a reminder of the region's industrial past. This building tells the story of local craft traditions that remain woven into the community's identity today.
