Guided exploration of the medieval city of Aurignac
The count castle and its restored keep, built on top of a rocky spur, dominates the landscape of this medieval city commingeoise. Built in the 13th century, it testifies to the stronghold occupied by Aurignac in the Middle Ages, the capital of an important châtellenie of the Counts of Comminges. Today the town offers, at the foot of the keep and in the medieval city, a varied cultural season, open to all, to make live these places full of history. The urban center of Aurignac developed over the centuries around its castle in the walled enclosures, offering today its architectural riches such as mansions, half-timbered houses, the porch of the church Saint-Pierre-aux-Liens and its famous twisted columns, the 3 towers on the coat of arms of Aurignac and many other wonders. Today, the numerous urban developments, and the blooming of the village highlight this heritage and offer to its inhabitants as to its visitors a pleasant living environment rich in cultural and sporting events, domina
