Baigts: Holiday apartments and houses
The Church of Notre-Dame de Baigts stands on a prominent hill within the enclosed former cemetery, which is accessible via a monumental staircase and a gate. It was already mentioned in the Red Book of Dax Cathedral in the mid-12th century. Because the church had to be built on the edge of a narrow ridge, the north side of its choir was reinforced with buttresses and arcades.
Those considering Baigts as a place to stay may wish to rent a holiday apartment.
Culture and history
The Arènes de Baigts have natural spectator stands formed by the slope around the village square and shaded by fir and chestnut trees. The tradition of Course landaise at the Arènes de Baigts dates back to the 19th century. In 1911, the municipal council decided to build boxes and a stand for the Arènes de Baigts next to the former town hall.
