Arette

Arette straddles the northern foothills of the Pyrenees in Béarn, where mountain terrain has shaped it as a settlement of the Barétous Valley. The village lies in the French department of Pyrénées-Atlantiques, close to high pastures and the Spanish frontier. Arette is associated with La Pierre Saint-Martin, a mountain resort in the surrounding Pyrenean landscape, while the nearby massif is known for its extensive karst cave systems. The 1967 earthquake that struck here caused major damage and remains an important event in the village’s modern story.
