Nice view of the village. In the old town you will find a few cafes and restaurants. The Castle, built in the 17th century. has been listed as a Historic Monument since 1961.

The castle is located between Valence-sur-Baïse and Auch (near the town of Jegun) in the Gers department in southwestern France. More information, for example about opening hours and current exhibitions, can be found on the Chateau Lavardens website:

A large part of the castle is open to visitors. In addition to many other rooms, the castle has a whisper room (echo room) with special acoustics. The high vaulted ceiling creates an echo that can be heard very well from one corner to the other. This room is rightly called the Salle d'Echo. There are also regular exhibitions of well-known painters, sculptors and other artists.

The interior of the castle is remarkably spacious and light with 19 different beautiful mosaic floors that are beautifully enhanced by the incoming sunlight. France has no other monument with so many of these beautiful authentic mosaic floors.

Between heaven and earth: that is Chateau Lavardens. Located between Castera-Verduzan and Auch the castle proudly overlooks the rolling countryside of the Gers from a hilltop. The castle has a rich and eventful past, something that is reflected in the sturdy and massive appearance.
