Condezaygues vers Béral et Carentas

Condezaygues seems to take its name from the many streams and rivers that run through its territory, from the Occitan candas (limpid) and ayguas (waters). The parish of Condezaygues, built at the end of a small rocky outcrop, the church known under the patronage of Saint Pierre is built on a base of concretioned lacustrine limestone dating from the Tertiary era. This material, colored red by iron oxide, was used to build most of the walls. A few rubble stones of another local lacustrine limestone give it white patches. The parish of Condezaygues has been known since at least 1271, when, under the name of Condarszagas, it appears in the oath of loyalty sworn by the inhabitants of the Baylie de Penne to the King of France, as heir to the last Count of Toulouse, Alphonse de Poitiers.
