Rauzan, from past to present

This small village of 1,200 inhabitants might seem unpretentious if it had not won the lottery of History and made the duty of transmission its hobby horse. Rauzan is indeed endowed with a very rich historical heritage …

The Tourist Office offers you a visit (free or guided) to the Château de Rauzan , witness to the Hundred Years' War, whose different phases of construction extend from the end of the Middle Ages to the Renaissance. A medieval fortified castle that has become a castle-residence over the centuries, linked to the names of great men such as Jean Sans-Terre, Bertrand du Guesclin and Léo Drouyn.

It is at the famous Antiques-Brocante Village of Rauzan that past and present converge. All year round from Wednesday to Sunday, you can find an original gift, enhance your interior decoration or stroll in search of hidden treasures!

Rauzan, between nature and heritage

To reconcile nature and history, hiking trails will take you through the moat of the castle, the Romanesque church of Saint-Pierre de Rauzan, sail through vineyards, fields and forests, to the dolmen of Curton, dating from the Neolithic, in the neighboring municipality.

The Les Caves de Rauzan wine cooperative will offer you a wide choice of the famous Bordeaux nectar from nearly 300 winegrowers committed to sustainable development.

Finally, it is truly underground that Rauzan will reveal his most impressive secret to you: the Celestine Cave, an underground river from the Quaternary. Accessible in the heart of the village by reservation at the Tourist Office, it will welcome the most curious and courageous among you!

As you can see, Rauzan has more than one trick up his sleeve, and more than one secret to reveal ...
