Priceless place listed as a Historic Monument since 1946, it is, without a doubt, the jewel of the Auvillar city. The circular plan fits beautifully into the triangular plaza. This configuration is particularly rare in the greater Southwest and even in France. In the 13th century, a rectangular hall stood in the middle of the square. It was replaced by the current hall in 1825. A very elegant building supported by 20 Tuscan-style columns, whose remarkable framework is covered with “canal” tiles. Inside, you can read the names of several cereals as well as meslin (mixture of wheat and rye) and champart (mixture of rye, barley and wheat). To be seen in the central part of the building, two types of measures: • Grain measures, carved in stone, come from the primitive hall of the Middle Ages. • metal measurements using the metric system are contemporary with the current hall. Came to see this gorgeous village on Sunday morning - only to find a great market in progress at the grain market building - an architectural gem!! Only surpassed by the one in Bruch!! Interesting little place with a medieval grain Market complete with grain measures Pictures like this one appeared a few months ago when Auvillar represented the region in the plus beau village de France competition. The inside of it is also spectacular. This village is fantastically beautiful, one of the hidden gems of Occitanie. It's nice to spend a summer evening here Amazing ! You feel the history just standing there ! What a beautiful French town. Picturesque and then some. A must visit. Super cute little town with a relaxed vibe and no many tourists. The round market hall is really cool, and the river view is worth the walk. Great spot to stop for a quiet stroll and a drink in the sun.
