Path of the pigeons: Every year between 1 October and 15 November, the wood pigeons pass the area in small columns, on their way to the warm south. This is the period when the entire south-west of France is infested with la fièvre bleue, the blue fever. Those who love hunting can be found in one of the palombières for six weeks.

The town over the centuries has often changed its name and spelling. In the Middle Ages, from the 14th century, it was called Sanctus Géronclus de Aquis Vivus, then in a royal ordinance of November 7, 1487 Saint Girons d'Aiguevives. On the maps of the 18th and 19th centuries, the name was simply Saint Giron, without the S, then around 1900 Saint Girons. Finally it found on September 8, 1960, its current name Saint Girons d'Aiguevives. In 1156, a Calabrian crusader BERTHOLD, returning from the crusades, withdrew to Mount Carmel, in the perimeter of Virou, thus was born "The order of Our Lady of Mount Carmel", made official by the Pope. Dating from the 14th century, vaulted with warheads, this sanctuary is in the flamboyant Gothic style. The flat chevet of the church is lit by a window with two panels. The mitred and crossed character depicted in the stained glass window behind the high altar is undoubtedly Saint Girons. Apostle of Gascony and martyred in the 4th century, he evangelizes Chalosse. His tomb, desecrated by the Huguenots in 1569 during the Wars of Religion, is in the crypt of Hagetmau (Landes). On the left, St Blaise (Bishop of Sébasse, in Armenia, second patron of the parish, his cult was once celebrated with a certain solemnity.) This church was rebuilt between 1853 and 1860 by the architect Jean-Edouard BONNORE. Only the old sanctuary, vaulted with warheads, has been preserved. The glass painter Dagrand made part of the stained glass windows between 1860 and 1900. They represent (from left to right): St Jean Baptiste (baptismal font) - St Louis- Ste Jeanne de Valois- St Jean the Evangelist- Presentation of the Virgin Mary by Ste Anne- St Pierre- Ste Madeleine (one of the holy women) - St André- Sainte Françoise (known as the Roman) - St François de Sales, bishop of Geneva. The choir was decorated by the painter TERRAL (1899). This artist also signed two paintings representing: one the meeting of Saint Girons with Saint Clair, the other the martyrdom of Saint Girons. The unsigned copperplate Way of the Cross is probably also his. To be noted, a curious armchair in solid oak, covered with Cordoue leather, offered by a parish priest. The bell tower was decorated in 1899. This bell-tower houses two bells, one of which, listed, dates from 1608, donated by Marguerite BIGNON, and the new 1000 kg bell, donated by the DELBOS du Virou family. To the left of the bell tower, a cemetery cross is placed at the top of a hard stone shaft, placed on a massive plinth whose corners are decorated with foliage. To the right of the bell tower, a Virgin is placed at the top of a column (19th century)
