Aire-sur-l'Adour, Historical commune in Landes, France

The town of Aire-sur-l'Adour extends along the banks of the Adour River, offering views of the Chalosse hillside at 80 meters elevation.

In the year 506, the Visigothic King Alaric II established his legal code, known as Breviarium Alaricianum, making Aire-sur-l'Adour a center of early medieval law.

The Gothic Church of Sainte-Quitterie, built in the 11th century and renovated in the 14th and 17th centuries, stands as a marker on the Way of St. James.

The town provides administrative services to residents from Tuesday through Friday, with operating hours from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM and 1:30 PM to 5:00 PM.

The local Tursan vineyard region produces red and rosé wines, while the town maintains its traditional grain market, designated as a Historic Monument.
