www.millau-viaduc-tourisme.co.uk. A lively and attractive market town on the Tarn, Millau’s stock in trade is leather and glove-making. A score of small factories (signposted off the ring boulevard) welcome visitors. The medieval town centre is a warren of narrow, shop-filled streets huddled around a 14thC belfry and pretty place du Maréchal-Foch. Two enormous plane trees shade the little square with its fountain centrepiece and row of arcaded buildings. In one corner the 12thC fa√笵cade of the Eglise de Notre-Dame-de-l’Espinasse is topped by an octagonal tower; in another you can get to grips with the glove-maker’s art at the Musée de Millau (www.museedemillau.fr), housed in the 18thC Hôtel de Pegay-rolles, together with exhibits detailing the prehistory of the Causses, collections of Gallo-Roman pottery and antique dolls.
