The magnificent Saint-Just basilica of Valcabrère stands in a bucolic setting below the village of Saint-Bertrand-de-Comminges. This religious building constitutes a magnificent example of Romanesque art. Built in the 11th and 12th centuries, it possesses a remarkable chevet and is the perfect place for contemplation. From the chevet, visitors can also enjoy a magnificent view of the surroundings especially St Bertrand de Comminges cathedral up on the hill.
In summer, the Comminges festival offers classical concerts taking place in various religious monuments, such as the Saint-Just basilica of Valcabrère, the Saint-Bertrand-de-Comminges cathedral, the Saint-Gaudens collegiate church and the Martres-Tolosane church.
