Sentier a p'Art

Works of art are installed in the middle of nature, on a hiking trail, for the pleasure of young and old curious. This walk invites you to take a close and artistic look at the natural environment. The artistic creation was entrusted to Coline Vergez, a local artist already well known in Simorre. His reflection on rural art and environmental concerns lead him to work with local artists and artisans for the realization of his 5 works and the signage of the course, using sustainable materials and/ or recovery. Collaborations: Jean-Michel Carcy, ironman of art in Seissan realized the arrows, Kriss Fabr'Hic, artisan of art recycler in Biran created the birds, Crhistophe Moine "Xof" recuperist diverter has realized the "Cycloraptosaurus", Aliénor Rajade glass artist in Simorre has realized "Insects in light", Jeff Cervera, cabinetmaker in Simorre has directed "La Pause des deux horizons", Stéphane Vincent carpenter of marine in Simorre, has realized "L'oeil du cocon", Juju and Dédé (MH Services) in l'Isle-en-Dodon have realized "The flight of flavors". A dossier "under the magnifying glass" gives you all the details about the artists, as well as the small exhibition presented in the tourist information office of Simorre. Discover or rediscover the p'Art trail with a series of audio guides. Along the trail, discover the explanations of Coline Vergez, the creator of the trail. Get on the trail using the materials available at the tourist information offices of Gimont and Simorre and flash the QR code of the document as you go.

Village of Simorre

A charming village, with its fortified church, its old central market hall, its museum, its half-timbered and corbelled houses, its foirail and shady squares that invite you to visit. Simorre surprises and amazes. The atmosphere of this small village is pleasant, as are the friendly musical nights in the square opposite the Bouche à Oreille. A little history: The village's picturesque narrow streets are particularly striking for their impressive fortified church, which rises up between the roofs of the houses and gives the impression of taking a trip back to the heart of the Middle Ages. After a devastating fire in 1141, the village, formerly the capital of Astarac, was rebuilt around the abbey, and the whole complex was fortified in the 12th century. To resist the Count of Astarac, the abbots constantly improved their abbey, which was given a cloister, an octagonal bell tower and extended to the west. The Abbey Church, an architectural jewel: A masterpiece of brickwork lost in the Astarac of stone. Dedicated to Notre Dame, it was built on the site of the previous church, which may have extended further west, as work carried out in 1900 uncovered remains of the construction in the extension of the current nave. Major restoration work was carried out between 1844 and 1858 under the direction of Viollet-le-Duc. The roof, which covered the walls, was lowered so that it rested directly on the vaults, and a crenellation was built around the building. ‘Simorre, a slow and committed commune! It belongs to the network of the national Cittaslow label’.

Notre-Dame Abbey Church

Notre-Dame Abbey Church

The Church of Simorre is a 14th-century abbey church built on a 5th-century oratory created by Cérats, who became the patron saint of Simorre. This church was linked to the Benedictine abbey, which has now completely disappeared. Built in the shape of a Latin cross, it has an octagonal tower at the junction of the nave and transept, which should have been a bell tower like Lombez cathedral. The nave has only two and a half bays and is finished off by a stone wall. Almost the entire building is in pink brick. The stained glass windows are remarkable for their age, colour and design (14th, 15th and 16th centuries). The 16th-century choir stalls have beautiful and moving sculpted details, particularly on the cheeks. In 1964, during restoration work in the sacristy, some very fine 14th-century wall paintings were discovered. Today, you can admire many religious objects, both simple and sumptuous, dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. There are 4 statues to admire: a wooden piéta from the early 8th century, a stone piéta from the 7th century, a statue of St Cérats from the 15th century and a processional cross from the 14th century. In the 19th century, Violet le Duc undertook the restoration of the building, changing its appearance and transforming it into a fortified church. A document with historic details is available inside as well as signs on the walls. An audio tour in French has been recorded and is available in the church.
