Covering an area of about 4200 hectares, the town lies at an altitude of 150 meters, on a ridge where we discover a clear day, the Pyrenees. The old town, on the hill, has ancient origins : its narrow streets, old houses with wood sides attest, and Catalot Street evokes the castle long gone.
Manciet is also Sauboires, Annex, a small hamlet that has its church, a vibrant rural home.
