The records from ancient times (the church of Saint Xist is mentioned in a Vabres l'Abbaye Cartulary of 940) of this almost disappeared for good. It was in the early 1980s that the publication "Sauvegarde Rouergue" (Safeguard Rouergue) became interested in this little church highlighting the importance of saving this heritage. An association was created in 1995 and since then it has continued to work to to give the church and its surroundings its lustre of past centuries.
During the restoration of the church of Saint Xist a medicinal herb garden was planted as in former times in monasteries. Almost 300 different species have been planted from aromatic plants to the most toxic. An occasion to learn to recognise the plants that surround us. Its patronage by the Montpellier plant garden demonstrates, if that were needed, its quality and diversity.
