Visit the Commanderie d'Artix, a restored medieval building featuring contemporary art exhibitions.
The foundation of the commandery dates back to the end of the 12th century. The building was located on the road to Santiago de Compostela, then protected by the Templars. Except for the chapel, all the buildings were sacked during the Hundred Years War. In the 15th century, the building was used for a farm and in the 19th century, for a distillery before being restored and opened to the public around 1970. One part is dedicated to contemporary art exhibitions. Guided tours are organized.

Elle rappelle une page d'Histoire de France, avec les restes visibles : d'un abreuvoir, du bâtiment des Gardes et de la Chapelle de la Villedieu, tous témoins de cette ancienne exploitation agricole.
Entièrement restaurée dans les années 1970. Inscrite aux MH (Monuments Historiques) en 1926.
Après avoir abrité un restaurant puis un centre de loisirs, elle est actuellement fermée, un autre projet étant en cours.
Souhaitons, que ce projet redonne ses lettres de noblesse à ce lieu qui a contribué au Passé et Grandeur de la France !!
