history
Spearheads and spurs prove the existence of a camp in Gallo-Roman times . But the prominent position of the excavation area was achieved through the discovery of a coin treasure from the fourth century AD and jewelry. The recorded history of the two parishes of Bordères and Lamensans took place in 1141 with the first mention of an estate belonging to the landlord . In 1821 the two former communities merged. The parish once again achieved national attention when Empress Eugénie de Montijo had the parish church built in 1867 and 1868.
Population development
The population showed highs of around 610 in the middle of the 19th century. In the period that followed, the size of the community fell to around 290 inhabitants during short recovery phases up to the 1980s, before a moderate growth phase began that continues to this day.

Attractions
- Parish church dedicated to St. Sigismund . After the previous building was destroyed by a flood of the Adour, the French Empress had this church built between 1867 and 1868. A plaque on the wall of the apse commemorates this donation.
- Chapel of Lamensans. It was originally built in the 12th century as a chapel by the lords of Lamensans on a hill above the Adour valley. It has been redesigned several times over the centuries. It was completely rebuilt in the 17th century with two small windows that illuminate the interior. A first expansion took place on the west side when a first bell gable was built, from which the entrance persists. The last enlargement took place in the 19th century when the southern side was widened, the building was raised as a whole and the roof turret was realigned. Inside the chapel, a liter funéraire from the 17th century, a mural painting from the 18th century, a painted coat of arms of the lord of Castandet and a painting with the patron saint of the chapel, St. Martin , who together with Mary at the foot of the Cross stands.
- Marrast Castle. In the second half of the 19th century it belonged to Adolphe Marrast, a wealthy merchant and mayor of Mont-de-Marsan. After his death he bequeathed it to his wife's nephew and famous pianist Francis Planté . The rooms of the property, as well as the master bedroom, show a design that comes close to the original. The outdoor facilities, such as the park and its fountain or a plaque reminiscent of a deported resistance fighter, represent an interesting cultural heritage.
