ARREAU Towns and Villages in Arreau

  • English
    • At the confluence of the Aure and Louron valleys, crossed by the Neste, Arreau was an important administrative and economic capital. It owes its prosperity to the drapery craftsmanship, from the 16th to the 17th century, then in the 19th century to hydrotherapy which made it a place of tourist passage.
      From its rich past, Arreau has preserved an exceptional heritage: the Maison des Lys, a Gothic house built at the end of the 16th century with corbelling and half-timbering adorned with lilies; the Saint-Exupère chapel which owes its name to this peasant who in the 4th century became savior then bishop of Toulouse, with its ornamental stones in pink tones; The Notre-Dame church with its bell tower in the shape of a square tower; the Neste castles, a military building now home to the Museum of Cagots (a cursed and rejected caste until the 12th century, treated as an outcast) and of the popular arts and traditions of the valley; and Ségure, dominated by a square tower of the XVI and whose one of his descendants, Louis Hector was musketeer of the King.
      At the entrance to the village, the birds of prey of the Aigles d'Aure offer magnificent aerial ballets.
