Tarnos (12,920 inhabitants in 2021; 2,626 ha) is a commune in the Landes department.

The first mentions of Tarnos date back to the 12th and 13th centuries. Until the 18th century, Tarnos was a parish with a habitat scattered over several hamlets and large estates: Ordozon, Garros, Romatet, Estiey, Boucau... Its economy is mainly oriented towards agriculture and is based on culture and agriculture. traditional breeding. The fortified church in the city center is a former commandery-hospital of the Hospitallers of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem. Built in the 12th century, it served mainly to welcome pilgrims to Santiago de Compostela who followed the coastal path.
Until the 16th century, the Adour crossed Tarnos from south to north to flow into Vieux Boucau. Louis de Foix decided to divert the river and cut its orientation to the north by building a dyke and thus force it to flow into the nearby ocean. The new mouth was opened on October 28, 1578. In 1855, the layout of the track that crosses the entire territory of Tarnos led to the creation of a station in the Boucau district.
Napoleon III decided in 1857 to detach from the town of Tarnos two cadastral sections of Boucau and Romatet to create the town of Boucau, before the port of Bayonne.
The improvement of maritime access, rail service, the proximity of Spain with its iron ore deposits in Biscay will lead to the establishment of the Forges de l'Adour factory in 1881, specializing in the production of rails and railway accessories. This sudden but remarkable industrialization will lead to economic expansion and an unprecedented population growth in the town. At the beginning of the 20th century, Tarnos became the main center of the Landes working class.
