Pinel-Hauterive (France)
The village of Pinel-Hauterive (population 461, 1999) is found in the Lot-et-Garonne department of Aquitaine.

This small rural town was created by the merging of two smaller adjacent towns: Pinel, on the hillside, and Hauterive, in the valley (The old French names for these places were Notre-Dame-de-Pinel and Sainte-Catherine de-Hauterive).

The Notre-Dame church surrounded by its cemetery is located on an outcrop dominating the Lot valley. Its oldest remains probably date from the 12th century.
