This is the town's main square, built around the church. Needless to say you can find a boulangerie here and a coffee.

Last interesting site to visit in Montmaurin, the Gallo-Roman Villa. The Romans enjoyed this place and built this well renovated house which gives us a good overview of period refinement.

Very beautiful coast between Montmaurin and Sarremezan. Moderate slopes, this coast winds through a small forest and is very pleasant to climb or descend. Very little traffic.

Ideal site for a family mountain bike outing without difficulties in a pleasant and quiet site. With a little luck you too will come across a litter of young wild ducks, a doe leaping on the canal or nutria in the middle of a nap! The old Roman road connecting Toulouse to Tarbes also borders the canal, in particular at the ancient crossing of several roads marked by the old oak of the Hurmagne which for the first time in many centuries has not produced any leaves this spring 2020. ..
