Luz-Saint-Sauveur, Mountain commune in Hautes-Pyrénées, France.

Located at 711 meters elevation in the Pyrenees, Luz-Saint-Sauveur sits at the junction of three valleys leading to Gavarnie, Barèges, and Luz-Ardiden.

The fortified Church of Saint-André, constructed in the 12th century, protected local inhabitants during periods of conflict between France and Spain.

The commune maintains traditional Pyrenean festivals throughout the year, featuring local music, dance performances, and regional food markets in the central square.

Regular bus services connect Luz-Saint-Sauveur to Lourdes and Tarbes, with additional winter shuttles operating to nearby ski resorts and thermal stations.

The Pont Napoléon, spanning 47 meters above the Gave de Gavarnie river, represents a remarkable feat of 19th-century engineering in the Pyrenees.
