Built on a valley, Arcangues is a typical Labourg village, with the village square, its fronton, its 16th century church surrounded by old houses. Its church is remarkable for its very beautiful altarpiece and its galleries.
The balcony cemetery offering a view of the Pyrenees mountain range to the south, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west, still contains many discoidal tombstones, some dating back to the 16th century. It also houses the grave of the famous operetta singer Luis Mariano.
Next to the chapel, a monument was erected in memory of the English and French soldiers killed at the Battle of the Nive, which took place in 1813 around this church.
