Aire-sur-L'Adour is a station on the Way of Saint James "Via Podiensis" (which goes from Le-Puy-en-Velay to Saint-John-Pied-de-Port), the hiker / pilgrim reaches the site of Nogaro coming after about 28 kilometers and can continue from here towards Arzacq (about 33 kilometers away) the next day.

The abbey church of Ste-Quitterie contains the relics of Saint Quiteria. According to tradition, she was a Gothic princess. She was beheaded because she did not want to deviate from her Christian faith.

That is the plausible part of the legend. The Middle Ages was the time of storytellers. Stories were told and often embellished when retold. So after her beheading, Saint Quiteria is said to have carried her own head to the place where the crypt is today. There is a spring there that is said to have healing properties for mental illnesses.

Part of the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, this church is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The church is built on the site of an ancient Roman temple. The place is also the location of a natural spring.
