Once upon a time there was Arthous, a curious abbey hidden among the trees, between Landes, Basque Country and Béarn. Walk in the footsteps of those who have occupied it over time: canons, farmers, archaeologists, scientists, artists... Hunt fantastic animals.
Visit the Arthous Abbey - signatory of the Mom'Art charter - and set off on the trail of cultural games to visit while having fun.
In addition to an interactive exhibition that dispels preconceived ideas about the Middle Ages, Arthous can be visited in a connected way thanks to the Guidigo application!
Keep your eyes peeled and your ears wide!
