The Cadeilhan Car Boot Sale: Treasure Hunting in Lomagne Gersoise

Every first Sunday of September, the village of Cadeilhan (32380) organizes its traditional car boot sale in the heart of the commune. This small village of 145 inhabitants, nestled in the Lomagne gersoise, transforms for a day into a place for treasure hunting and conviviality, attracting bargain hunters from surrounding communes.

Lomagne Gersoise, Land of Bastides

Cadeilhan is part of the Lomagne gersoise, a region of rolling hills and green valleys located in the northeast of the Gers. Lomagne is a land of medieval bastides — Lectoure, Fleurance, Saint-Clar — and hilltop villages, in a landscape of mixed farming where vineyards, sunflowers, white Lomagne garlic, and cereals are grown. The Cadeilhan car boot sale offers a chance to discover this little-known region, far from the usual tourist trails.

A Village in Full Renewal

Remarkably for a small rural village, Cadeilhan has seen its population increase by 31% between 1999 and 2022, from 100 to 145 inhabitants. This demographic dynamism reflects the attractiveness of the Gers countryside for families and new rural residents seeking quality of life. The car boot sale is one of the events that contribute to the social life of the commune, with the support of the town hall led by Mr. Edouard Schmidt.

A Late Summer Treasure Hunting Day

The September car boot sale is an ideal opportunity for treasure hunting at the end of summer, when attics have been cleared out during the holidays and the items on offer are particularly varied. Furniture, crockery, clothing, toys, books, garden tools, trinkets, and decorative objects make up the exhibitors' offerings. The refreshment stand and on-site catering allow you to fully enjoy this back-to-school day in a rural setting.
