Gaillac, Administrative commune in Tarn, southwestern France

Located between Toulouse and Albi at 140 meters elevation, Gaillac extends across 50.9 square kilometers of diverse terrain along the Tarn River banks.

The Gauls established Gaillac in the second century CE, developing a river port that facilitated wine trade throughout the surrounding regions.

The Abbey of Saint-Michel, constructed in the 10th century, transformed local viticulture practices and influenced the architectural development of the town.

The town hall at 40 Place de Hautpoul provides administrative services, including civil registration, identity cards, and building permits for residents.

Gaillac produces wines under two distinct appellations, utilizing specific terroir composed of clay, limestone, sand, and silex soils.
