Cadrieu is a French commune with 158 inhabitants (as of January 1, 2017) in the Lot department in the Occitanie region (before 2016: Midi-Pyrénées ). The municipality belongs to the Arrondissement of Figeac and the canton of Causse et Vallées (until 2015: canton of Cajarc ).

The name of the community could be a derivative of the Latin Catureium fundum ( German  country estate of Catureius ). According to Cassagne, the thesis is that due to the earlier forms Cadrivo , Quadrivio or Carrieu, the name comes from the Latin quadrivium ( German  crossing ).

The inhabitants are called Cadriais and Cadriaises .

In 1504 Antoine de Cadrieu was the landlord of Cadrieu with low jurisdiction. The family owned it until the middle of the 18th century before it was passed on to the Lostanges family via marriage.

Attractions

Parish Church of Saint Barthélemy

The parish, which has always been a branch of the archpriesthood of Cajarc, was mentioned in the will of the Dorde de Barasc in 1286. A section of the wall of the current nave can date from the 13th or 14th century. The church was probably largely rebuilt in the 17th century. The bell tower was not added to the west until the late 19th century. Only the grave of the Saint-Chamarand family remains of the cemetery that no longer exists today.

Based on the stone , the parts of the wall can be identified, which can be assigned to the Middle Ages . This is particularly true of the southern wall of the nave, where the remains of a narrow window can be seen. Inside the church there is a small niche on the north side with a lintel in the shape of a three-pass , on the south side there is a beveled pointed arch .

Cadrieu Castle

The previous castle was destroyed during the Hundred Years War in 1390. The tower that remains today dates from the 14th century. The ground floor of the main building could have been from the 16th century. Today's appearance is primarily the result of extensive construction work in the 17th century.

The castle was built on a hill above the Lot valley at the far eastern end of the village. Today it consists of an elongated tower and two L-shaped wings that delimit the courtyard to the north and east. The tower was later widened by a yoke towards the north. The only visible wall openings from the Middle Ages are small windows with ogival lintels on the top floors on the south and west sides and a rectangular lattice window, only remnants of which can be seen between the third and fourth levels on the east side. The main building opens onto the courtyard via two large arched arcades on the ground floor and three bays of windows. A porthole with a semicircular gable could be preserved. The north wing has been falling apart for a long time.
