Camparian, a locality in the commune of Canéjan, is home to the ruins of an ancient priory. Excavations were carried out between 1966 and 1970, and again in 2010. These uncovered the ruins of a chapel and a monastery. The local authority now wants to enhance the area and bring back these ruins, so that the site can attract local residents and become a place to learn about history.
