Commanderie de Figeac, Medieval Templar commandry in Figeac, France
The Commanderie de Figeac stands in the center of town between Rue Gambetta numbers 39 and 45, featuring three buildings arranged around an interior courtyard.
Founded in 1187 by the Knights Templar, the commandry later transferred to the Hospitallers of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem in the 14th century.
The commandry served as a crucial stop on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, providing shelter and care for travelers crossing through Figeac.
The commandry opens to visitors on Saturdays from 10:30 AM to 1 PM and 2 PM to 6 PM during November and December, with extended hours in summer months.
The Toré del Grifol, an original structure within the Temple compound, maintains several medieval architectural elements and remains accessible for examination today.
