Like all French departments, the Gers has seen the birth of a number of people who have shaped the course of French history. However, one of these personalities has earned a reputation that transcends borders and left a lasting influence on the world of literature – none other than D’Artagnan! He was brought to life by Alexandre Dumas in his trilogy that begins with “The Three Musketeers”. Dumas’ character may have been created to fit the novelist’s narrative, but D’Artagnan really did exist. And he was indeed a musketeer! What’s more, he was born in Castelmore Castle, a residence in Lupiac in the Gers.
