La Mirande

Overview

Mirande is a Bastide town in the Gers, that dates back to the 13-century.

The church was built at the beginning of the 15-th century and is notable for its porch that is surmounted by two flying buttresses supporting a belfry of Flemish appearance.

The remains of ramparts are still to be seen and the principal street is bordered by ancient arcades.
