history
The municipality of Bourriot-Bergonce emerged in 1906 from the two quarters of Bourriot and Bergonce of the municipality of Lugaut.
The quarter La Gare between Bourriot and Bergonce recalls the time when the community is a train station at an intersection of two railway lines of the Chemins de fer du Midi possessed. In 1893 the last section of the line from Mont-de-Marsan to Marmande was opened, in 1904 the line towards Langon and in 1923 towards Gabarret . The operation of the transport of people and then of goods was gradually discontinued. Since the demarcation line between the occupied and the unoccupied zone was very close in World War II , the section to Gabarret was the first to be abandoned. In 1944 the tracks were confiscated by the German occupation. The section to Marmande was finally closed in the 1960s, the line from Mont-de-Marsan to Langon at the beginning of the 1970s.
Population development
After the community was founded in 1906, the size of the community decreased with short recovery phases until the 1990s from an initial 930 to 305 inhabitants, before the population stabilized and increased moderately.

Church Saint-Jean-de-la-Porte-Latine in Bergonce
It is dedicated to the apostle John and probably comes from the 11th century.
Saint Martin Church in Bourriot
A Romanesque monogram of Christ , which was reused on the west facade, is the only element of the simple church consecrated to Martin von Tours , most of the parts of which are believed to have been built in the 13th or at least at the very beginning of the 14th century. In the 18th century the church was redesigned with the creation of the western door in 1748 and possibly with the construction of the vestibule and sacristy. The nave was made lower in the same move. In the 19th century, all window openings were redesigned. In the south of the nave, the parish priest Saint-Yors had an oversized cross made of marble and cast iron erected in the 1860s .
The single nave nave is lengthened by the apse, which is slightly narrower and at the same time higher than the nave. It is flat with rounded corners and is flanked on the south side by the sacristy. The ceiling of the nave is covered with painted wooden shingles, the choir with a false vault made of plaster of paris. A bell gable with three arched openings dominates the east facade. The apse is walled with rubble stones made of limestone and garluche mixed with bricks. The southern wall of the nave shows several stones on the foundations and rubble stones in the upper part.
Eight stained glass windows are works by the glass painter Louis-Victor Gesta from Toulouse . The windows for the choir were made in 1865, and the windows for the nave in 1867. They show biblical people:
- Mary with baby Jesus ,
- Saint Martin, patron saint of the Church,
- Saint Blaise of Sebaste ,
- the Archangel Michael , kicking the dragon with his feet,
- the holy Prisca of Rome , with the martyr's palm ,
- saint Anna ,
- the apostle Peter and
- Saint Stephen .
Most of the furnishings seem to have been renewed after the French Revolution to repair the damage or damage that was caused by prolonged neglect. The baptismal font from the 18th century is an exception. These and many other objects are registered as national cultural assets.
