This poster pays vibrant tribute to the Gers region, located in southwest France, a destination renowned for its exceptional natural beauty, refined gastronomy, and rich cultural heritage. The Gers, in the heart of the Occitanie region, is a land of rural traditions and picturesque landscapes, known for its vast fields of vibrant sunflowers, rolling green hills, as well as its charming medieval villages and numerous historic castles that dot its territory.
The Gers is also a mecca of French gastronomy, showcasing renowned local specialties such as artisanal foie gras, savory duck confit, and quality wines from the Madiran and Saint-Mont appellations. The Gers' traditional markets offer an abundance of fresh, local produce: seasonal fruits and vegetables, artisanal cheeses, fine charcuterie, and not to mention the region's famous spirits.
Among these, Armagnac occupies a central place in the history and culture of Gers. Produced since the Middle Ages, Armagnac is a wine brandy with complex and authentic flavors. The town of Condom, often referred to as the capital of Armagnac, is still home to traditional distilleries that perpetuate this ancestral know-how passed down from generation to generation.
The cultural heritage of the Gers is equally remarkable. Historic towns such as Lectoure, Auch—the prefecture—and Fleurance have preserved their original medieval architecture, with cobbled streets, ramparts, and listed monuments. Romanesque churches and cathedrals also bear witness to the spiritual and artistic richness of the region. Furthermore, the Gers hosts renowned cultural events every year, such as the famous Jazz in Marciac Festival, which attracts visitors from around the world and showcases the region on the international stage.
