The fortified village of Fleurance, founded in the 13th century, has a central square with arcades and a beautiful 19th-century covered market hall in the middle. Now the headquarters of the town hall, the latter is decorated at each end with pretty fountain statues representing the four seasons.

Also worth a look is the Church of St. Laurent, in the Southern European gothic style, crowned by an octagonal Toulouse-type bell tower. Once inside, don't miss the three magnificent Renaissance stained glass windows by the artist Arnaud de Moles, located in the apse.

Additional information
Fleurance

Capital County Gaure the bastide Fleurance was founded in 1272 by Gerald of Cazaubon (a local lord) and Eustache de Beaumarchais (acting on behalf of the king of France). The top of a small hill called Montaglon (Mount acorns), was chosen to establish the centrality of the new city. The role of this place, square and 60 m on each side is to promote trade. In its center, we built the house together. The streets are straight and intersect at right angles is a country house!

Eustache de Beaumarchais liked to call the city he founded by the great names of European cities. Fleurance (Florentia) is named after Florence, the famous city of Tuscany (Italy).
