Historical Heritage

You’re surrounded by history

From iconic historic monuments to more intimate, secret sites, you’re surrounded by history, here where it all began, over 15,000 years ago, when nomad hunters settled in the prehistoric caves of Labastide.

Heritage sites galore, some of which now propose tours, such as Escaladieu Abbey and Mauvezin Castle, where history is retraced through remarkable villages, towers, castles, an abbey, a chapel, altarpieces and other small heritage features.

Every town and village has its legends and anecdotes, a whole story to tell.
