High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val is a commune in the Tarn-et-Garonne department in the Midi-Pyrénées region in southern France. Anciently known by its Celtic name of Condate (confluence), legend recounts that the abbey of Saint-Antonin (Occitan: Sant Antonin) was founded in the 9th century in honour of the saint who brought Christianity to the province of Rouergue, on the western edge of which the town now stands. Successful in this, he decided to convert Pamiers, his hometown in the Pyrenees. But resistance there resulted in his beheading, following which his body was thrown into the Ariège River.
