Sauveterre-de-Béarn (French pronunciation: [sovtɛʁ də beaʁn], literally Sauveterre of Béarn; Occitan: Sauvatèrra; Basque: Salbaterra Bearno) is a medieval village perched above the Gave d'Oloron and facing the Pyrenees in south-western France.

While the stone portions of the drawbridge remain, the wooden section is no longer there and the terminal of the bridge has been walled.

In the Middle Ages the town was used to keep a watch from its lofty heights on Gascony and the bordering Navarre.

Sauveterre de Bearn appeared in the Trevanian (aka Rod Whitaker) novel The Summer of Katya under the name Alos.

In the book, it is where the Festival of the Drowned Virgin takes place.
