Agen

After leaving Serignac, there is a series of 4 locks in a row before crossing the Agen Aqueduct. Historic Agen is known for its prunes. The prunes are amazing and I definitely recommend getting some. They are so moist inside.

The Agen Aqueduct prior to arriving in Agen, 12 km from Serignac.

Skate park just outside of Agen

Statue on the banks of the canal prior to arriving in town.

Center of town with statue depicting a pilgrim on the Camino de Santiago de Campostela. The scallop shell is a symbol of the route.

Cathedral Saint Caprais was built in the 12th century. It's been designated a World Heritage Site.

The interior is beautiful.

Market days are Wed and Sun mornings. Agen also has a covered market that is open Tue to Sun. In the covered market, we found these sides of beef aging.
