Estaing is an attractive town on the Lot River in the Aveyron region. It has been prominent since the Middle Ages, and is the family home of former French President Valery Giscard d'Estaing. It is overlooked by the imposing Chateau d'Estaing. An important early leader was the Bishop Francois d'Estaing (1460-1529). The delicate carving on his garment is impressive.
