Studying French in Saint-Laurent-de-Cerdans offers total immersion in a calm and preserved mountain environment, while discovering authentic local traditions. In the very south of France, it is a typical Catalan village located in the Pyrénées-Orientales department, not far from the Spanish border.
Its history dates back to the Middle Ages, with an architectural heritage testifying to local traditions, its bell tower and its stone houses. Historically, the local economy was based on mountain agriculture and livestock breeding, activities which are still partially present.
Today, Saint Laurent de Cerdans diversifies its economy with crafts, logging and environmentally friendly tourism. Its Catalan culture is manifested through festivals, musical and gastronomic traditions which enrich the experience of a French course in France. The local cuisine, rich and generous, highlights mountain products: cold meats, cheeses, traditional dishes such as “trinxat”, a kind of pot-au-feu, and “rousquilles”, baked donuts, reflect the cultural identity of this Pyrenean territory.
