Castelsagrat

Castelsagrat is a small village in the Tarn-et-Garonne department, located in the Lomagne area on the edge of the Quercy Blanc, within the Occitanie region of south-west France. Founded in the Middle Ages as a bastide, it retains the typical layout of these fortified towns of the south-west, with a central square and stone buildings characteristic of the local limestone architecture. The village lies amid a landscape of gentle hills, orchards and farmland, where melons and plums are grown, both well-known specialities of the Lomagne and Quercy regions. The peaceful countryside makes it a pleasant base for rural stays, walking, and exploring nearby bastide towns such as Lauzerte or Montaigu-de-Quercy. Its proximity to the Garonne valley and towns like Moissac or Valence-d'Agen also allows for cultural and culinary day trips within easy reach. Castelsagrat offers a quiet, authentic setting typical of rural Tarn-et-Garonne, valued for its unspoilt natural surroundings, away from the busier tourist spots of the wider region.
