    Tips

    The Church of Saint-André, known as the Templars, was built between the 12th and 13th centuries.
    It was only later that the ramparts were built to protect the inhabitants of Luz from Spanish attacks.


    If the church still occupies a central place in the city, it also seems to play a role in the sky. Indeed, this monument is a marvelous observation site for those who want to see falcons and kites. The two birds of prey have taken up residence in the towers of the building.

      Beautiful 11th century church surrounded by fortifications added later. Good starting point for a tour of the old town
