Tournon-d'Agenais

Tournon-d'Agenais sits at 172 meters elevation on a hilltop overlooking the agricultural valleys of southwestern France, featuring traditional stone architecture and narrow medieval streets.

Founded in 1271 by Philip III of France, the commune experienced significant destruction during the Albigensian War when its castle was demolished in 1212.

Recognized as one of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France, the commune celebrates its heritage through annual festivals including the Fête des Rosières with religious ceremonies.

The municipal office operates Monday through Thursday at 16 Place de l'Hôtel de Ville, serving the 742 residents with postal code 47370 and INSEE code 47312.

The village features a distinctive lunar clock mounted on its bell tower, a rare astronomical timepiece that tracks lunar phases alongside traditional timekeeping.
