Sarrant (French pronunciation: [saʁɑ̃]) is a commune in the Gers department in southwestern France.

The Philip IV of France (1268 –1314), better known as the Fair or Iron King, set up a charter of customs, which protected the inhabitants and set the living rules in the village community.

[3] According to the charter, consuls headed the royal castrum (fortified camp, rectangular in plan) of Sarrant and not the local Lords.

The houses of Sarrant create a ring around the central church of the village.

This is not a common layout for a Bastide, because in general they were commercial enterprises and the market square was the central element of the village.
