Montgiscard

Montgiscard covers 13.16 square kilometers at 191 meters elevation in the Haute-Garonne department, crossed by the Hers river and several streams that shape its rural and agricultural landscapes.

The 15th-century Saint-André church, classified as a historic monument, reflects Montgiscard's medieval past as a strategic point on commercial routes between the Garonne valley and the Pyrenees mountains.

Cultural life centers around the historic church, a weekly Tuesday market, local associations, and festive events that celebrate rural traditions and regional products from the southwestern French terroir.

The town hall located at 17 Grand'rue handles administrative procedures from Monday to Saturday, while the commune features two primary schools and sits 27 kilometers from Toulouse.

Montgiscard maintains a sister city relationship with the Italian town of Campolongo Tapogliano, fostering annual intercultural exchanges that enrich the local life of this 2,530-inhabitant commune.
