About

This square tower is the one of the castle that has now disappeared. With a height of 30 or 40 meters, it occupied a strategic position allowing the village to support a possible siege.

An old watchtower (probably from the Gallo-Roman period), renovated in 2003, communicated with the other towers of the Valley of Spades. This tower bearing the number 14, according to the map drawn by the engineer Tousaint Lézat, is part of a set of 19 towers that formed a large signal system used to warn the plain and to warn the valleys.

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.
