Superb Cistercian building founded in 1151, very well preserved.

This town of barely 1,150 inhabitants has a rich architectural heritage including the Saint-Jean-Baptiste church and its superb square as well as the Cistercian abbey of Flaran, daughter of the Escaladieu abbey.

A former Cistercian abbey, this beautiful building now houses two historical exhibitions, one devoted to the routes to Santiago de Compostela and the other detailing the history of the abbey itself.

This superb chateau is the centerpiece of a magnificent vineyard. Here you can run in the middle of the vines.

The Château de Mansencôme was built in the 14th century and belonged to the Lasseran family for several centuries. After the revolution, it unfortunately passed through several owners before being abandoned.

Flaran Abbey permanently houses the special 'Simonow' Collection with some 100 extraordinary works of art from the 17th to the 20th century. The collection consists of works of art by world-renowned artists such as Braque, Cézanne, Chagall, Courbet, Delacroix, Monet, Picasso, Renoir, Rodin, Rubens, Tiepolo, Toulouse-Lautrec and others. Michael Simonow started collecting in 1964 at the age of 18. Since 2002, his prestigious collection has been loaned to Flaran Abbey.

The monastery 'Abbaye de Flaran' is located in the Vallée de la Baïse just before Valence-sur-Baïse, just 14km east of Camping La Brouquere. This attraction is therefore easy to reach by bike!

The monastery was converted several times until it was bought by the Département du Gers in 1972, after which an extensive renovation was started. Nowadays many cultural activities are organized in the monastery.
