Sehenswürdigkeiten
Assat Castle
The castle was built in the fortified town in the 12th century. It defended the eastern border of Bearn and controlled the ford over the Gave of Pau. A century later, Gaston VII de Moncade founded a fortified town, Durfort, near the castle.
Assat Bridge
The bridge was built during the 19th century to improve access across the Gave de Pau. It was part of an ambitious bridge construction programme set up by the regional council of the Basses-Pyrénées. It’s a pretty, coloured bridge that invites you to contemplate the Gave de Pau and the Pyrenean piedmont landscape that surrounds it
View on the Gave de Pau and the mountains from the area around the bridge
The view of the Pyrenees and Le Grand Gabizos from the bridge is exceptional, with the river flowing beneath.
