The department of Gers, also known as Gascony, set in the Occitanie region of southwestern France, holds a rich and fascinating past. Established during the tumultuous times of the French Revolution in 1790, Gers was formed by amalgamating regions from the former provinces of Guyenne and Gascony. This picturesque area is bordered by the departments of Hautes-Pyrénées, Haute-Garonne, Tarn-et-Garonne, Lot-et-Garonne, Landes and Pyrénées-Atlantiques. Gers prides itself on being one of the least densely populated areas in Western Europe, offering a peaceful and idyllic setting for residents and visitors. The people of this region, affectionately known as Gersois, hold dear their traditional Gascon béret, a symbol of cultural heritage that transcends generations.

A Unique Distinction & Strategic Location

Gers stands out as the only French department (number 32) unaffected by motorways, a point of pride for the Gascon people. Despite its rural appeal, it benefits from a strategic position, situated midway between the lively cities of Toulouse and Bordeaux, and is accessible via internal airports that ensure easy travel.

Gastronomic Treasures of Gers

Gers' cultural tapestry is woven with the threads of agriculture, with a particular emphasis on local gastronomic treasures, such as foie gras, Armagnac digestif, and tasty wild mushrooms from the terroir. While Gascony, a variant of Occitan, is not widely spoken, the region has been shaped by successive waves of British and Spanish immigrants.

Auch: The Heart of D'Artagnan Country

Serving as the capital of Gers, Auch is a beacon of historical and cultural significance, revered internationally for its association with D'Artagnan and his Musketeers. The city boasts an array of captivating landmarks, including the picturesque cathedral of Sainte Marie, the imposing Tour d'Armagnac and the splendid Château de Lavardens. Visitors to Auch can engage in a variety of activities, from leisurely hikes and scenic cycling routes to immersing themselves in the vibrant atmosphere of local markets and festive celebrations.
