Its population is about 2,000 people. It is famous for its wine and sun; and Magalas may be small but its charms should not be underestimated. Built in a defensive circle known as a ‘circulade village’ (such villages are quite a feature of this region due to its turbulent history) and perched high on a hilltop, Magalas looks down on a corner of South West France that is rich in history and which makes a terrific base for exploring this fascinating region. The town itself has no shortage of things to see and do and, despite its size, has a commercial centre with first class shopping and a vibrant social life, and several restaurants that come highly recommended! Locals flock to one of the many bars scattered all over the centre and thanks to the opening of the Picasso museum more visitors are choosing Magalas as a holiday destination. It’s a happening place!
