Origin and history

The church of Costeraste is a religious monument located in the commune of Gourdon in the Occitan region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its exact origin or the circumstances of its construction. Its architecture and role in the local community remain to be studied in more detail.

In the Lot, where Gourdon is located, rural churches have often played a central role in the life of medieval and modern villages. They served as places of worship, community gatherings and sometimes refuge. Without specific information about Costeraste, it can be assumed that it has fulfilled these traditional functions, reflecting the social and religious organization of the region throughout the centuries.
