Origin and history

The Lissac obelisk, located in Figeac in the Occitan region, is a monument whose origins and period of construction are not specified in the available sources. Its name evokes a link to the said place or a local family, but no detailed historical information is available to confirm its original history or function. Obelisks, often erected as memorials or symbols of power, could also serve as landmarks in the landscape.

In Figeac, as in other cities in Occitanie, these structures were sometimes associated with local events, influential families or urban projects. Without precise data on this obelisk, it is difficult to determine its exact use, but it reflects the architectural and historical heritage of the region.
