Bastide of Vianne

Founded in 1284, Vianne is one of the few bastides in southwestern France to have preserved its fortifications: its ramparts, gates, and towers, virtually intact today, have withstood the ravages of time and man to become one of the most authentic reminders of Albret's medieval past.
Explore its perpendicular streets thanks to its regular layout, stroll through the Vianne de Gontaut-Biron garden in search of the mystery of the Louve de Vianne, discover its unusual Romanesque church and walk along the ramparts of the bastide town beside the Baïse river!
