About

The church is from the 12th century despite appearances. Like many Romanesque churches of the Comminges, this church contains archaeological elements used today.

The parish church dates back to the 12th century. It was remodeled in the 19th century. It shelters the marble shields of the old noble families of Marignac, such as the Pardaillan, the Sicard de Miramont, the shield of the counts of Comminges, and probably of Saint Pierre.

The commune still has three chapels; the Saint-Martin chapel (10th and 11th centuries) renovated in 2005 was one of the seats of the Templars, the Calvary chapel (at the foot of the Rie mountain), and the Saint Roch chapel (between the village and the hamlet of Saint-Martin) and three castles: the one of Espouy, the one of Sacère (attached to the church and partially destroyed during the Revolution), and the Lucien Saint castle.

New - The Tastes & Flavors Guide

While eating well without breaking the bank is a major concern for our fellow citizens, short supply chains are thriving in Comminges. Now more than ever, there has been a growing need for a guide that lists producers, restaurateurs, and food professionals who sell their creations directly to consumers and work with local products in an ethical manner.

From Farm to Table with Complete Transparency: The Charter

The Charter of Commitment was developed by and for professionals in partnership with the Comminges-Pyrénées Tourism Office. It highlights producers from all fields and chefs who work according to best practices, promote Comminges products, and share their respective expertise.

The guide “Goûts et Saveurs en Comminges” is not just a directory of businesses. It is much more than that. As you turn the pages, you’ll also find recipes, profiles, and interviews.
