Chapelle des Templiers de Lacapelle-Livron

Chapelle des Templiers de Lacapelle-Livron, Templar chapel in Lacapelle-Livron, France.

The Chapelle des Templiers de Lacapelle-Livron is built of rough grey and tan stone blocks. A tall square tower on the left carries a round clock face high on its side, an arched opening above and a rectangular window below, with a row of projecting corbels under its pyramidal slate roof. A lower slate roof steps down to the right toward a smaller stone structure with a curved clay-tiled roof.

Established in the 13th century following donations from Grimals, lord of Livron in 1225, and Raymond VII of Toulouse in 1227, this commandery served as a strategic administrative center for the Knights Templar.

The chapel and its fortified bell tower are the last standing remains of a commandery whose name comes from the village, Lacapelle-Livron. The site was a Templar baillie headquarters from 1260, replacing Cahors; a 1268 chapter counted the commander, three knights, three priests, a chaplain and eight other brothers. After the Templars, the Hospitallers kept it until the 18th century.

The chapel and its fortified bell tower stand in the heart of Lacapelle-Livron, about twenty kilometres south-west of Villefranche-de-Rouergue and near Caylus. The chapel was classified as a monument historique in 1901 and the dovecote was inscribed in 1971; both are the only remains of the commandery in the commune.
