Puymirol, première bastide de l'Agenais
This bastide, founded in 1246 by Raymond VII, Count of Toulouse, was the first of its kind in Agenais. It set its ramparts at the top of the limestone cliffs surrounding it.
This tour will make you discover the bastide of Puymirol. Founded in 1246 by Raymond VII, Count of Toulouse, it has built its ramparts on the surrounding limestone cliffs. The regular urban organization is organized along a linear axis that crosses the central square in the middle and pierces the ramparts to the east and west. As early as 1247, a castle and a church were built there. Today, the bastide has remained within its walls and if the ramparts have lost their height, they allow you to admire a 360° panorama. The round tour, about 2 km long at the foot of the ramparts, will delight walkers.
