Riupeyrous was first mentioned in the records in 1336. In the 1385 census of the Béarn, twelve households were counted. The village belonged to the Bailliage of Pau. Over the centuries, several noble families owned the manor . It was the Sollu and Laroque families in the 17th century, followed by the Capdeville and d'Auga families. In 1728 the owner was Samuel Ignace de Casenave, an adviser to the Parliament of Navarre . In the following years it came into the hands of the Ducasse family. In the 19th century, Riupeyrous was known for its fox hunts, which were particularly popular with the English who spent their summer holidays in Pau.
