A little lumpy but very picturesque. Lots of old churches and monuments in the area.

Shelter and sanitary facilities next to Notre Dame des Cyclistes

Pretty chapel, and space designed for a comfortable stop (tables, shelters, toilets, etc.). When I was there, the chapel was closed. Find out about the opening dates if you want to see the interior.

I am truly more than surprised to find this church. But in the country that hosts the "Tour de France", which is so important beyond its borders, there must be a place of worship like this.

On May 18, 1959, cycling world champion André Darrigade left his jersey, thus starting a tradition. In summer, the church is open in the morning and afternoon. In autumn, unfortunately, it is only open in the afternoon from 3 p.m., so we were unable to visit.

A church from the 12th century, the time when this bastide was founded. Beautifully painted, it would now need a gentle renovation.

The Castle of Termes is located in the municipality of Termes in the French department of Aude. Today it is a ruin. It was a famous Cathar castle in the Corbières. The castle held out for months against the crusaders of Simon de Montfort.

The beautiful Church Notre-Dame de l'Assomption is located right in the large square of Labastide-d'Armagnac. At the south-east corner of Place Royale, the line of porticoes surrounding the square is abruptly interrupted by the imposing tower of the church founded in the medieval period, between the 14th and 15th centuries.
