Castelnau-sur-l'Auvignon

Castelnau-sur-l'Auvignon is a commune in Gers within southwestern Gascony, set in rolling farmland with scattered houses and fields stretching across the landscape. The village sits at an elevation of roughly 166 meters (545 feet) in this quiet agricultural region.

The settlement developed during medieval times as part of the Gascon landscape, shaped by centuries of farming and rural life in the region. Over generations, it has remained a small agricultural village connected to the land.

The village sits within the Armagnac region where residents connect to local brandy-making traditions through community identity. This tie to regional practices shapes how people here view their place and history.

The village is best explored on foot since it is small and compact with a straightforward layout. The surrounding countryside is welcoming for walks through the fields and gentle slopes of the area.

The village school served for generations as a gathering place for the community beyond just teaching, hosting local meetings and events. This building was the heart of social life in the small settlement.
