The great hunting rendezvous of the Huguenot town
In the small Huguenot town perched between Castres and Toulouse, the Puylaurens Foire à Tout brings together private sellers and dealers each spring for a popular day of hunting. An institution of the southern Tarn mixing family bric-a-brac, quality brocante and a warm atmosphere.
Former stronghold of Languedoc Protestantism, Puylaurens, perched at 286 m between Castres and Toulouse, hosts each spring its Foire à Tout, a popular rendezvous rooted in Tarn fair traditions. The event gathers private sellers and dealers across several streets and squares of the town.
Puylaurens, a small town of 3,500 inhabitants, boasts rich heritage: former Protestant temple, Royal College, 18th-century mansions and panoramic views over the Montagne Noire and the Lauragais.
Open to both private sellers and brocanteurs, the fair offers a characteristic spring mix: family attic bric-a-brac, small brocante, and occasionally more specialised stalls.
The Foire à Tout sits in the tradition of great Tarn popular fairs. It attracts local hunters, families from neighbouring Lauragais villages and visitors travelling between Castres and Toulouse.
Many visitors extend their day exploring the Sidobre, Montagne Noire or Lauragais.
