Castandet (French pronunciation: [kastɑ̃dɛ]) is a commune in the Landes department in Nouvelle-Aquitaine in southwestern France.[3] For centuries, it was an important village of potters, whose products — tableware or utensils, household items and tools for agricultural or craft work — were sold in much of Gascony.[4]
