Discover Beaumont de Lomagne
Beaumont-de-Lomagne, bastide, was founded in 1276, in 1278 the town was granted a very liberal charter of laws, by the standards of the period, defining the rights and duties of its inhabitants.
In 1280, work commenced on a large church; the bell-tower, was made in the fifteenth century and resembles that of Saint-Sernin in Toulouse. Construction finished around 1430 and the Bishop of Montauban, driven out of his city by the English, made it his episcopal seat until 1432.
Come with us and discover a whole lot more about this town in Gascony in south west France.

All dressed up and nowhere to go ... yet. So the lockdown in France still goes on, but today we can smell a breath of freedom - we can now go out to a max of 20kms and for 3 hours. Before today it was 1 hour and 1km. So it’s time to dust the gear off and charge the batteries, in all senses of the term and after the rugby (good job All Blacks this morning) we will head to the canal du midi #camera #leica #leicaq2 #france #gear
