   • The Chapel Saint-Michel d'Aiguilhe. A remarkable site perched high on a rocky pinnacle, the chapel was built in the 10th century. Hike up the numerous steps to the Church of Saint-Michel, and be glad that you are not carrying the material for its construction with you.
   • Le Puy-en-Velay Cathedral and cloisters. The cathedral is the starting point for the long pilgrimage path (1600 km), and each morning there is a blessing for those about to set off on the journey.
   • Corneille rock: the statue of Mary and Jesus. The Corneille Rock bearing the statue of Mary and the baby Jesus is visible from many parts of Le Puy-en-Velay: this pink statue was erected in 1860.
   • Other sites of interest. There is a large square to the south of the town (towards the Henry Vinay Garden) called Place de Breuil where markets are held and you can find the Le Puy-en-Velay tourist office - pick up the useful map of the town here before setting off exploring.
