The church of Auabs located right bank of the Vézère has the name: Saint-Cyr-et-Sainte-Julitte.
It is listed as a Historic Monument since September 18, 1970.S construction dates from the 12th century.
In the nineteenth century, the western facade is redone while retaining the Gothic portal and above the choir, an old bell tower-wall is replaced by a bell tower (ornament in the shape of a small bell tower).
As is customary, the church is oriented east-west. Its access is through the western facade. The Gothic portal with three vaults (curvatures) is surmounted by a bell tower-wall with 3 bell bays of which only one has preserved a bell.
The nave is flanked by a lateral chapel to the south, located just before the choir. It is rectangular in shape and has preserved from the Romanesque period only the north wall and its painted ceiling.
