Small 19th‑century obelisk honoring Jean-François Champollion set in Figeac’s medieval square. Shoot textures of carved hieroglyphs, the obelisk’s silhouette against timber‑framed facades, and intimate street scenes. Best at golden hour or blue hour for warm stone tones and dramatic sky; weekday mornings have fewer tourists. Easily reached on foot from central parking; no entry fee. Respect local cafés and quiet residential streets.
