Tourist Attractions & Monuments Hérault

Discovered in 1886 during construction work on the railway, the Devèze cave is nicknamed the "Palais de la fileuse de verre" for the remarkable finesse of its concretions: "Aragonite flowers", a large petrified waterfall, impressive and imposing stalagmite, then an "altar" and its bright white candle, stalactites real mineral sculptures (rings, sickle, butterfly ...) and astonishing draperies tinted white to dark ochre.

In the heart of an exceptional landscape, the access to the abbey founded by William of Orange and classified today as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, is through the cloister. The museum is located in the former refectory of the monks. Its collections bring together pieces from the old abbey and cover fifteen centuries of sculpture, since the Gallo-Roman era. An amphitheater allows visitors to travel through twelve centuries of history thanks to a 17-minute film and a virtual reconstruction allows visitors to imagine the cloister as it was in its original state.
