Auvillar (Altivillare in the Middle Ages) is a commune in the department of Tarn-et-Garonne and the Occitanie region, situated at the edge of the Lomagne region on the banks of the Garonne river. Since 1994, Auvillar has been voted one of the "most beautiful villages in France" with its harbor area and outstanding monuments like the circular hall, the clock tower and the Church of St. Peter. Auvillar is a stop for tourists and pilgrims on the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage route.
The village is on The Garonne river, half way between Agen and Montauban and is a lovely place to visit, especially for the circular Halle au Grains, which is unique in South West France.
