In Monflanquin, one of the most beautiful bastides in the South-West, discover above the tourist office the Espace Bastides, a Heritage Interpretation Centre devoted to the phenomenon of the new towns of the Middle Ages which appeared in the South-West of France between the 13th and 14th centuries.

Explanatory panels, models, teaching aids and a fun trail for families will enable you to discover the modernity of these new cities with their chequered plans, equipped with a charter of customs initiating a different organisation of medieval society.
