The buildings dating back to the sixteenth century, like the main church on the outskirts of town, give the village a historic ambiance and a unique flair. Granite, slate and basalt are the main components of the historically rich houses, giving the village a certain charm. The picturesque, narrow streets, as well as the old ruins, are reminiscent of the films of the Beast of Gévaudan, a creature whose mischief was attested starting in 1764 (according to historical accounts). For many years, the beast left the villagers outside of Laguiole holding their breaths. The Beast of Gévaudan skinned countless animals. The deaths of 102 people, exclusively women and children, were also pinned on the monster. When you take a walk through the streets of Laguiole, you can easily send yourself back to the seventeenth century and imagine what life was like for the people who lived and worked there daily. Had the world-renowned Laguiole pocketknives already existed, one or two villagers might have been able to defend themselves from the beast!
