Mini Guide Agen

A place of rolling countryside, rugby and prune production, Agen is a quintessentially French town which should be visited by anyone in the country.

Agen is the capital of the Lot-et-Garonne department and is situated on the Garonne River between Bordeaux and Toulouse. Historically Agen was put on the map when Richard the Lionheart offered it as a dowry to the Count of Toulouse for his sister's marriage. 

Agen is a good place for all the family to go as it has an 18-hole golf course, an adventure park for the children and miles of surrounding countryside to explore. There you can see the orchards where plums (which are thought to have been brought back from Damascus during the Crusades) are grown to make into prunes. There are also many beautiful chateaus. These include Le Chateau des Ducs and Le Chateau Madaillan which both do fascinating guided tours.

Art lovers who come to Agen can visit the Musee Municipal des Beaux Arts which is open daily except on Tuesdays and has a fine collection of paintings by Goya.

Another good day out would be to see the local team play as they have won the French championship many times.
