Bonnegarde (French pronunciation: [bɔnɡaʁd]; Gascon: Bonaguarda) is a commune in the Landes department in Nouvelle-Aquitaine in southwestern France.[3]
An ancient fort stands in the village dating back to 1283 and Edward I of England, founder of the bastide. In 1297, a French army under Robert II, Count of Artois defeated an English army under Henry de Lacy during the Battle of Bonnegarde, part of the Gascon War.
