Montmaurin, Archaeological site in Montmaurin and Lespugue, France.
Montmaurin is an archaeological site with two Roman villas from different periods spread across several hectares. The remains show residential spaces, baths, storage areas, and agricultural zones that illustrate how ancient residents lived.
Settlement at this location began in the Stone Age with hunting camps. Roman occupation later brought the construction of large villas that were modified over centuries before being abandoned.
The name comes from an old family that lived in the area for centuries. Visitors can observe how Roman residents organized their homes and which spaces they used for daily activities and farming.
The site is mostly open ground and should be visited during dry weather, as paths become slippery after rain. There is little shade, so bring sun protection and water during hot months.
A natural spring flows at one of the villas and has attracted people for thousands of years. This water source was likely the reason why different cultures settled here one after another.
