Buildings
- Parish church dedicated to the Apostle Peter . It was built in the Romanesque style in the Middle Ages . The church was restored in the late 19th century and again in 1975. During work around 1896, the bell gable was replaced by a bell tower on the entrance porch. Its exposed brickwork shows pebbles in the upper part and rubble stones in the lower part of the tower. Typical of the region around Salies-de-Béarn is the border of the entrance with white stones and the slate- covered helmet of the bell tower. The single nave nave of the church is extended by an apse , the exposed brickwork of which also shows the use of pebbles. Several pastors and landlords are buried in the church, which is registered as a national treasure.
- Dufau watermill . It was built in 1105 by the monks of the Benedictine Abbey of Saint-Jean de Sorde. It is still in operation today and produces organic wheat and corn flour.
