*list of things to do
St. Mary's Cathedral
Classified as a major site on paths of Santiago de Compostela by UNESCO, Cathedral attracts all eyes with its dominant position at the top of the hill. In front of its facade as well as inside, all the superlatives come to mind! His beautiful stained glass windows by Arnaud de Moles, its two organs and don’t miss the choir, it is one of its jewels!
Strolling through the heart of the city: quite a program!
Place next to D'artagnan on'monumental staircase surrounded by vines, observe the panorama on the lower town, push open the doors of the town hall and discover the only theater of the 18th century preserved in the South-West, go down our medieval streets, the pousterles and tcharer** with a few locals…
** from Occitan charrar, to speak, to discuss
Gourmet breaks and tastings
Our wine merchants and gourmet shops are responsible for offering you the best of Gascon gastronomy. Tasting of Floc de Gascogne or Armagnac, aperitif board around duck or goose… come and meet us: we will give you our good addresses.
Museum of the Americas-Auch
The link between the Americas and Auch does not seem obvious to you? And yet, it is in this museum what is the 2nd largest collection of pre-Columbian art in France. The adventure continues at the heart of local heritage thanks to the rich collections presenting the history of the city and Gascony.
Nooks of nature
Also, it's a town in the countryside, let's not forget it. We ❤️ it Cuzin garden, for a picnic break, relaxation or reading in the historic center and of course the promenade along the Berges du Gers: 8km gentle round trip.
Is it time to sit down at the table?
Lunch, snack, aperitif, dinner, small or large appetite, with or without duck... To each their own option (and we have plenty for you!).
How to organize your visit?
Go to the tourist office: you can pick up a wandering plan from the city. And a surprise awaits you! Since 3th floor, two unique views of Auch: the roofs of the old town and Sainte-Marie Cathedral.
