Larrazet (French pronunciation: [laʁazɛ]; Occitan: L'Arraset) is a commune in the Tarn-et-Garonne department in the Occitanie region in southern France. The village has bastide character, with its old half-timbered houses and wooden frames, its narrow streets, its remains of ramparts and the arch of the old gate of the barbican.[3]
In the 17th century, Johan de Cardailhac, abbot of Belleperche Abbey, ordered the construction of a church, flanked by a majestic hexagonal bell tower, as well as a massive stone bridge which today no longer exists. The Eglise Sainte Marie-Madeleine, the church of Larrazet has a single nave, with a square sanctuary. It is built entirely of ashlar from local quarries. Theis stems from the need to use churches as a place of refuge during the French Wars of Religion; it was necessary to remove sills and ledges, which would have provided a somewhat daring assailant with climbing facilities. Above the entrance door is a broken statue, which was to represent the Virgin holding the child Jesus. At the base one can make out flamboyant patterns.[4]
