If you are interested in Lafayette and eager to travel, I suggest you visit the beautiful town of Le Puy-en-Velay in the Massif Central where his statue is proudly erected. Off the beaten path for most, but rewarding for the others.

Then go to tiny village Chavaniac where you'll visit the castle he lived in for a while, that carries his name.

Go see the Forteress of Polignac, 10 km north from le Puy-en-Velay. Nice castle with a uncommon setup atop a hill and high walls. Rich history.

And if you feel in shape and have enough time, Le Puy-en-Velay is the main French start for the Camino de Santiago.
