Presentation of Le Barp

Le Barp (5,654 inhabitants in 2021; 10,732 ha) is a municipality in the Gironde department. It is located in the Landes Forest, on the territory of the Landes de Gascogne Regional Nature Park.

The town was founded around the hospital that already existed in the thirteenth century instead of the current church and which did not survive the abandonment of the pilgrimage: Le Barp is on the way from Tours to Santiago de Compostela and many pilgrims went through Le Barp every year.
To the Revolution, the Saint-Jacques parish formed the commune of Le Barp.
