The Ramparts of Lectoure

In your opinion, how can you effectively protect yourself against an enemy? Raise a 3,2 km rampart around the village in limestone in the XNUMXth century, add a second line on the east face and a bastion in the XNUMXth century.

The result is an impregnable stronghold. Of the towers and other fortified gates, only their memory remains, on the other hand the surrounding wall has been entirely preserved and even restored by the town for thirty years. Take advantage of this monumental heritage without delay.
