Tosse

Tourism, holidays & weekends guide in the Landes

Charming municipality of the Landes, in the region New-Aquitaine, Tosse takes place at ninety kilometers from Mont-de-Marsan, in the heart of the Landes Forest. Crossing by the famous "Lakes Route", it is located not far from Dax and Bayonne.

Old, the municipality of Tosse does not have any real housing traces before the ninth century, which the region is experiencing significant clearing in order to be cultivated. Capital of the Vicomty of Maremne in the Middle Ages, it was also the headquarters of the court of jurisdiction until the nineteenth century. Originally turned towards the glassware, the economy of this city in southwestern France has little industrialized.

Today, the municipality continues to attract visitors through the charm of its architectural heritage and its preserved landscapes.

Things to see and do

Listed on historical monuments, the Saint-Sever Church is originally from the twelfth century, but it has experienced many transformations over the centuries. Located in the heart of a greenery box, near a lake, it still reveals today an apse transformed into the first half of the twentieth century and with a charming Romano-Byzantine-inspired style.

If you want to enjoy the beautiful days and discover the local fauna and flora, direction the black pond and the white pond. The first owes his name to his dark appearance, while the second owes it to his contrast with his neighbor. Do not hesitate to visit the communal forest to discover its 200 hectares.
