Le Burgaud, a name that recalls the heather that once covered its territory, is a rural municipality where the first hillsides of Gascony begin. Traces of six Gallo-Roman villas have been found in the village. It was founded in 1124 by Lord Bertrand de Cobirac, who ceded the territory to the Knights of Saint John of Jerusalem, who held a commandery there until 1789. The fortified village was clustered around the church and the Commanders' fortified house.
