Discover Cazaux-Savès

Cazaux-Savès appeals to travellers weighing cultural landmarks, scenery and individual activities for their stay. Château de Caumont and the Church of Sainte-Marie-Madeleine form a cultural and historical focal point; an e-bike ride, a fishing spot and the village festival add other interests. If you are looking for a hotel, it may help to consider whether the château and church, a bike ride or a particular festival date will shape your trip.

Château de Caumont and Park

Château de Caumont is a listed Renaissance château. The château itself can only be visited as part of a guided tour. Seasonal and booking conditions may change; check them before your trip. The park has different visiting arrangements: it is open for a self-guided walk, although seasonal access conditions may also change. If visiting the château is important to you, plan around the guided tour and check the conditions in advance. A walk through the park allows you to explore independently.

The estate covers 50 hectares of woodland and farmland and offers spectacular views of the nearby Pyrenees. Caumont thus combines Renaissance architecture with a strong connection to the landscape. The château tour and the walk through the park are different ways to shape your visit; the views and the size of the estate complement its cultural focus with a landscape perspective.

Church of Sainte-Marie-Madeleine

The Church of Sainte-Marie-Madeleine also offers specific points of interest for a visit focused on history and culture. It dates largely from the 18th century and was restored in the 20th century. Its entrance porch has seven arches and is topped by a bell gable. These features give the church a distinctive architectural profile, different from the Renaissance style of Château de Caumont.

A chapel in one of the church’s southern bays contains tomb slabs for several people who lived at Château de Caumont in the 17th and 18th centuries. Here, the church’s building history meets memorials to people with a connection to the château. If you are making both landmarks the focus of your trip, you will find two different historical perspectives here: the church’s architecture and the tomb slabs in the chapel.

Cycling, the Save and the Village Festival

For a longer bike ride, the 39.8-kilometre “Crêtes et arêtes – En Couleurs sur les Coteaux du Savès” e-bike circular route is one option. It passes through Cazaux-Savès along the Route de l’Antin. Road conditions and the route may change; check the current route before setting out. Its published distance and e-bike format can help you plan this ride as a distinct part of your trip.

Another interest takes you to the Save: Cazaux-Savès has a fishing spot near a waterfall that is popular with anglers. The village festival takes place every year on the last weekend in June; the date may be adjusted in some years. If the festival is important to your trip planning, check the date for the relevant year. The e-bike ride, fishing and festival are different reasons to visit and can be taken into account according to your interests.

Consider which of these will matter most during your stay, and choose Cazaux-Savès as your destination according to the priorities you have planned.
