Flying in Agen: the local context

Prefecture of Lot-et-Garonne, halfway between Bordeaux and Toulouse, Agen is inseparable from its prune — the ente plum dries on the surrounding hillsides — and from its 539-metre canal bridge, one of France's longest, carrying the lateral canal across the Garonne: a splendid aerial subject. The brick old town around Saint-Caprais cathedral and the Fine Arts museum (with its Vénus du Mas) complete the heritage. Agen-La Garenne aerodrome (LFBA) to the south-west is the main aeronautical landmark.

The Agen economy relies on food production (IGP prunes, the fruit-and-vegetable sector of Lot-et-Garonne, France's leading orchard), the pioneering Agropole food-tech park, the national prison-service academy (ENAP) and SUA rugby. Drone missions: precision agriculture and orchards, agri-food communication, real estate, construction monitoring, canal river tourism.

Checked on 13 October 2026 on the official drone restriction map (DGAC layer of the Géoportail, June 2026 edition): the centre around Saint-Caprais cathedral, the canal bridge, Agen-La Garenne aerodrome, Boé and Estillac (Agropole) are shown as “flight prohibited”, with the note “no flying over public space in built-up areas except as provided by the Airspace Order”; the hillsides north of the town carry no specific restriction (general 120 m ceiling). A video of the canal bridge or a street in the centre is therefore prepared as a professional flight, with prior notification for flights over populated areas sent to the préfecture, not as a hobby flight.
