The Abbey of Saint-Sever is a Benedictine abbey of Romanesque style founded by Count William I of Gascony at the end of the 10th century.

Here the famous Lady of Brassempouy was discovered in 1894, today attested as the first human face.

To see: the Benedictine abbey, the convent, the Jacobins museum, the Butte de Morlane and its arenas.

To see: the current castle and the ruins of the feudal castle.

Romanesque building with circular apse and rectangular bell tower, of which only the apse remains, dating from the end of the 12th century. Inside, you can see 18th century woodwork, a monumental 17th century wooden chandelier, funerary slabs, and above all a marble high altar made around 1770 by the Mazzetti sculptors of Swiss origin who worked also in Laurède, Montaut, Aire sur l'Adour, Brocas les Forges, Mont de Marsan, Saint Pierre du Mont, Dax, Orthevielle, Pouillon and Sorde l'Abbaye.

The classified capitals of the Saint-Girons Crypt are a jewel of the 12th century.
