Beautiful walled city, surrounded by fortified walls.

This exceptional monument is the largest fortified mill in France. It is also called the Henri IV mill, because it belonged to Henri de Navarre, who became one of the most popular kings of France. You can visit it between April and October. To get there you have to take a splendid Romanesque bridge.

Carrefour de l'Albret, Barbaste is said to be the Porte des Landes. Located on the ancient Ténarèze road which, since prehistoric times, has led men from the Pyrenees to the Garonne through Gascony, Barbaste was an important commercial crossroads.

The Barbaste mill is located on the right bank of the Gélise, a thousand meters from its confluence with the Baïse, on the territory of the commune of Nérac, in Lot-et-Garonne, in New Aquitaine. Part of the dam facilities are located in the municipality of Barbaste.

The oldest part of the castle is the 13th century keep, to which windows were added in the 15th century. It was the residence at the time of Jean Poton de Xaintrailles who was a companion of Joan of Arc.

Built at the end of the 13th century and functioning as a mill, the structure also served as a fortified castle during the Wars of Religion. A function to which it seems more suited when we observe its towers and its imposing presence on the Gélise.
