The small town of Mazères has less than 700 inhabitants. In Latin, its name means "fence wall" (in dry stone), "wall" and "farmhouse". It is a small wine plateau surrounded by the streams of Presquey and Brion. They cut the plateau and formed small slopes or caves. The story would stop there, if, in 778, Charlemagne had not established with his son Roland a fortification on the road to the Pyrenees. A fortified town that was improved in 1306 to become an impregnable fortress. Viollet-le-Duc took an interest in the site and carried out the renovation work from 1860 to 1870. This historical monument is now one of the most visited in the Gironde department.
