Condom, a former episcopal city crossed by the Baïse River, is renowned for its Saint-Pierre Cathedral and its Armagnac-related past. In front of the cathedral stands the famous statue of the Four Musketeers (D'Artagnan and his companions), a tribute to Alexandre Dumas' novel and the famous captain's Gascon roots.

A primitive building was consecrated by Pope Urban II in 1096. It was the priory church of the Benedictines. It became a parish church after the priory was sold in 1666. In 1697, the bell tower collapsed. In 1749, the church was in danger of collapse. The current church was rebuilt between 1758 and 1785. During the Revolution, the church became the "supreme temple." In 1855, the bell towers were added and the sacristy was rebuilt. The church, in the shape of a Latin cross, includes a nave. Its façade is adorned with four fluted pilasters with Ionic capitals supporting a triangular pediment. The stained-glass windows are from the 19th century. They depict scenes from the life of Saint Joseph, the Agony of Christ, scenes from the life of the Virgin, Pentecost, Saint Louis, Saint John the Baptist, and the Immaculate Conception. The prophets and kings of Israel can be seen: Abraham, Daniel, Abel, Noah, Moses, Elijah, Aaron, Melchizedek, sibyls, as well as a Virgin and Child, a Pietà, and the coat of arms of Abbot de Vivie.

The Buzet-sur-Baïse river stop is ideal for taking a break along the Canal Lateral à la Garonne. Perfect for cyclists, with plenty of supplies to stock up on!

Nestled on the banks of the Baïse River, Nérac offers a peaceful atmosphere. Formerly the residence of Henry of Navarre, the future Henry IV, the town preserves a rich heritage with its castle, cobbled streets, and half-timbered houses.

Perched high in the Lot-et-Garonne region, Moncrabeau offers a superb panoramic view of the Baïse Valley. Known as the "world capital of liars," the village holds a lying competition every summer, organized by the Académie des Menteurs (Liars' Academy), a good-natured tradition that has made its reputation far beyond the region.

With its rolling hills, cultivated fields, and hilltop villages, this landscape of Lot-et-Garonne evokes the atmosphere of Tuscany in places. A peaceful and luminous setting, typical of the southwest.

The setting is magnificent, it is a restaurant / guest house so it is not possible to have a picnic, but to have a small restaurant in a superb setting it is perfect.
