Charming village. Worth a visit

Orthez is a town with some nice old buildings.

It was in 1732 that “a Royal earthenware factory” was established in the small town of Samadet, which produced earthenware with rich and colorful decorations for more than 100 years. The factory will employ a workforce with specialized know-how and its production will be widely distributed, notably through the port of Bayonne. But, in 1838, the Manufacture could not resist the competition and closed its doors. The museum, created in 1968 by the Earthenware Committee and given to the Department in 1998, preserves the memory of this epic; it tells the history of Samadet earthenware and that of tableware.

A short climb of about 1.5 km with maximum gradients of 11%. It's a nice little climb to test your legs.

The view from le Pont-Vieux at Orthez. The bridge is closed to cars, and you can cycle over it.

Orthez is the former capital of the Bearn. The landmark is the bridge with its defense tower from the 13th century

Dear Herbert, that's a nice reminder of this beautiful section of the Way of St. James, which we also sweated along today!

Really nice bridge with a great view of the river
