Moustier

Moustier is a village in Lot-et-Garonne in southwestern France with traditional stone buildings and narrow streets spread across sloping terrain. The houses and layout reflect the character of a typical rural settlement in the region.

The village traces its origins to a medieval monastery that once stood here. A church built in the 1800s replaced an earlier religious building from the 10th century.

The name comes from a Latin word meaning monastery, showing the religious roots that shaped this place long ago. You can still sense this heritage in how the village is laid out and organized.

The village is small and easy to explore on foot, with basic services like shops and facilities available for everyday needs. The main street and surrounding paths are accessible throughout the day.

Agriculture dominates the land here and defines much of what you see around the village. This rural focus has remained central to the place for decades.
