Immerse yourself in our history and traditions

Explore our region and discover the Occitan culture that has forged the identity of our « Païs » for over a thousand years. Let the stones of our villages speak for themselves.

Occitan will also reveal the unusual origins of place names and family names: Castanet (La Châtaigne -the chestnut-), Lacassagne (Le Chêne -the oak-), las falhadas (Lasfaillades- bonfires)), etc.

Take a bite out of the Occitan Tarn by savouring the « responchons » (wild asparagus) omelette, the Melsat (yellow dried sausage) as well as desserts such as Millas (cake made of corn flour) or Mesturet (winter squash cake).
