Laguépie is situated at the confluence of the rivers Aveyron and Viaur and at the tri-point of the departments Tarn-et-Garonne, Aveyron and Tarn. On the opposite, left bank of the Viaur is the village Saint-Martin-Laguépie, which is in the Tarn department. Historically part of the province of Rouergue (now the Aveyron department), Laguépie was added to Tarn-et-Garonne in 1808.[3]
