Here, everything will remind you of Saint-Exupéry or Mermoz, who stayed in Parentis-en-Born during the time of seaplanes. The only museum in Europe dedicated to seaplanes is a few kilometers away. These pioneers stayed at the Hôtel du Lac et des Pins, right near the Lake of Biscarrosse and Parentis.

Emblematic town of the ferias of the southwest

This little town in the Landes is also known for the way it has cultivated ferias and bullfights for generations. The greatest toreros practiced their art in Parentis starting at the beginning of the 20th century. In 1929, the bullring and feria theater were built, which are very popular with fans. The town still hosts ferias with concerts, bandas, corridas, cavalcades and Landes races all summer long.
