The Gallo-Roman pile of Saint-Lary, canton of Jegun, Gers, is located on a hill, facing the village. Property of the State, it is the most interesting in the department, by its niche, although the vault is missing, but especially by its facing in small apparatus of square stones, or in diamonds, or even in hexagons. We find a good commentary in the Bulletin Monumental volume 63, year 1898, pp 5-68: Article by Philippe Lauzun "General inventory of Gallo-Roman piles in southwestern France and more particularly in the Gers department" which in particular takes up the description made by Adrien Lavergne, vice-president of the Société Historique de Gascogne in Excursion de la Société française d'archéologie dans le département du Gers in 1881, Auch, 1883. Regrettably, the pile deteriorates over time, so the facing is much less present than at that time. It is listed in the architectural heritage inventory (Mérimée) under the reference PA00094917.

Ordan-Larroque Gallo-Roman pile. In the department of Gers, one finds at the edge or in the middle of the fields, stone constructions all in height, with a large niche at a certain level. These piles, "tourraque" in Occitan, were built between the 1st and the 4th century AD. Historians seem to agree that these are funerary monuments in honor of local figures. The niche must have contained a statue. The Ordan-Larroque pile is located north of the village, on the "Chemin de César", above the place called Mengot. It is quite run down. The large upper niche has disappeared, the small niche that we see is from the 19th century. However, it is listed as an historic monument as an architectural heritage.
