COMMUNE DE VILLEMUR-SUR-TARN

Medieval city of character all in brick, nestled between the river Tarn and its hillsides, the city has everything to seduce you. Labelled "Station Verte" for nature vacations!

A remarkable architectural heritage, with its 12th-century defence tower and its 17th-century "Greniers du Roy" (royal granaries), both steeped in history and listed as historic monuments. Here, the narrow streets with their evocative names recall the town's eventful past: the old fortifications, the passage of Henry II of Navarre, a famous battle during the Wars of Religion, the terrible flooding of the Tarn in 1930, the Brusson epic...

You'll love relaxing along the banks of the river, swimming in the summer, cycling along the greenway, admiring the scenery and the view over the valley from the top of our hiking trails, and sampling the local produce.

Ideally situated at the heart of the Toulouse-Albi-Montauban triangle, it's an ideal starting point for exploring the region and a green lung where you can recharge your batteries in a generous natural environment.

So take your time and discover...
