Eourres underwent a rural exodus in the late 19th century and at the end of both world wars. However, new momentum has been created by the clearing of barren land and the arrival of new families, some of whom have embraced organic farming.
At an altitude of 1,000 metres, the Eourres district was once divided into two parishes: Eourres and Rougnousse. Visit Saint Etienne Church, in the "Moresque" style, overlooking the village.
