Traditional markets

A real local institution!

Are you a gourmet? So are the inhabitants of Cœur de Bastides, and they are proud to let you discover their specialities!

Our markets

The markets, provided for in the charter of customs since the foundation of each bastide, have always been very important in local life. 

The Lot-et-Garonne is renowned for its market gardening and farm produce: the sweetness of life also includes eating well. Several producers offer their specialities from the South-West based on duck, hazelnuts or liqueurs and brandies (to be enjoyed in moderation!) made from fruit from the region (including the famous Agen prune). 


Traditionnal markets :

  • Monday morning in Cancon, rue de la République and Halle Lakanal
  • Tuesday mornings in Castillonnès, from Place des Cornières to Place Jasmin.
  • Wednesday mornings in summer only in Villeréal, on Place de la Halle, de la Libération, Jean Moulin and Haut Morvan.
  • Thursday mornings in Monflanquin, Place des Arcades.
  • Saturday morning in Villeréal, Place de la Halle, Place de la Libération, Jean Moulin and Haut Morvan.
