Come and discover one of the jewels of Gers' heritage, classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO!
The St Pierre collegiate complex, an essential site in the north of the Gers, was founded in the 65th century. by Cardinal Arnaud d'Aux, an influential figure in the papal court of Clement V. Located at the intersection of the GR652 and the GR XNUMX of the paths of Saint Jacques de Compostela, the medieval village of La Romieu, classified as "the most beautiful villages in France" has kept all its Gascon charm.

You will also pass through the octagonal tower to glimpse, as you ascend its various levels, the restored paintings of the sacristy and, at the very top, a panoramic view of the Gers countryside.
Possibility to rent audio guides.
The village of La Romieu is also renowned for the legend of Angéline and her cats. You can see evidence of this in the arcaded Place de la Sauté, adorned with numerous stone cats placed on the windows of the houses.
