Auvillar

A stopover on the way to Santiago de Compostela and labeled among the Most Beautiful Villages of France, Auvillar is easily identified by its surprising circular grain market in the heart of the village.
A warm and special atmosphere emanates from the traditional homes made of a mixture of red bricks and white stones. The ancient Gallo-Roman city experienced its golden age with earthenware and the goose feather industry. Besides the market square, take the time to stroll through the streets to admire the clock, the church, the castle square and its view of the Garonne, the rue des nobles, the wash house and go down to the port to admire the Sainte Catherine chapel. Don't miss out on discovering the art and craft galleries, the exhibition at the Tourist Office, the museum of old Auvillar, and take a break in the many restaurants of this small village. Every Sunday morning, producers await you on the square for the traditional market.
