Bourg, 40090 Bascons
The parish church of Saint-Amand, listed as a historic monument, is one of the finest churches in the Landes. Partially burnt down during the Wars of Religion, it retains several features of a former fortified castle: a watchtower, a sentry box, arrow slits and embrasures. In addition to its imposing architecture, it boasts numerous points of interest: a wall-mounted belfry with five bells, a flamboyant Gothic portal, three large 18th-century polychrome statues, three altarpieces from the 17th and 18th centuries, and an 18th-century pulpit featuring elements from the Louis XIII period. Open to visitors during services.
