In the southern Landes, in the Pays d’Orthe et Arrigans, the village of Sorde-l’Abbaye has kept its rich heritage, a rarity in Aquitaine. Its fame is mainly due to its Benedictine abbey, founded at the end of the 10th century on the banks of the Gave d’Oloron river. This remarkable architectural ensemble overlooks a natural setting that is now protected. The Abbey of Saint-Jean (St. John’s) is listed as an Historic Monument and has been included in UNESCO’s World Heritage List as part of the Pilgrim’s Route in France to Santiago de Compostela.

A bit apart and uphill from the downtown, this church is an absolute must see. From the outside, enjoy the clock tower and the tympanum. Inside, the main highlights are in the choir (especially some great blind arcades with capitals). Above all, one shouldn’t miss the crypt, first of all because of Sainte-Quitterie sarcophagus sculpted in white marble during either the 4th or the 5th century.
