Poudenas, une ambiance de Toscane

To capture the spirit of this small country reminiscent of Italy, this itinerary offers low-angle views of Poudenas from the Gélise, and panoramic images as you pass over the hillsides. The village is located on the northern slope of the Gélise valley, on the border between Armagnac and the Gascony forest. Over the centuries, it was built around its castle, built in the 13th century, to control the valley, then it developed on the slope down to the river.
Butcheries were established in the 19th century and continued until the 20th century. The economy of Poudenas is based primarily on its pine forests and vineyards of Armagnac. The wheat mill of Poudenas also visible on this circuit was built in the 16th century on the banks of the Gélise.
